The topics of the planned tours are of historical importance. A recently published article on the website of the city of Pirmasens mentions that there were two crucial days of fate for the city during the Second World War: August 9, 1944 and March 15, 1945. On these days, air strikes led to significant destruction and losses. The city tour draws the image of the destruction and the subsequent reconstruction, which began in 1948 and was largely completed by the end of the 1950s.
The leadership that deals with the air raid on Pirmasens in World War II provides insights into the time, with the meeting point also the city museum of Altes Rathaus. The cost of this special leadership is 5 euros for adults, while children up to 14 years are free. Registration is requested.
