1. Arp Museum Bahnhof Rolandseck
Three miles north of Remagen, via a scenic riverside promenade, the Arp Museum Bahnhof Rolandseck incorporates a 19th-century converted railway station, which hosts a world-class series of concerts, and a soaring modern building designed by renowned architect Richard Meier set on a hill high over the river. The translucent white building incorporates four levels of exhibition space to house the permanent collection focusing on the work of Dadaist Hans Arp and Sophie Taeuber-Arp in parallel with modern and contemporary works by internationally known artists and sculptors. There is also a fine collection of paintings from the Middle Ages to the present. The stylish in-house bistro is a great place to grab lunch or a snack. A train from Remagen station goes right to the museum (€5.90 round trip, about a six-minute ride), or you can take a ferry to nearby Rolandseck and walk.

2. Apollinariskirche (Church of St. Apollinaris)
Standing high over the town on the Apollinarisberg Hill, the roots of this neogothic church run deep. The site first hosted an ancient Roman temple that was supplanted in medieval times by a 9th-century Frankish chapel dedicated to Saint Martin. In 1110 the Benedictines built an abbey on the site, which became the resting place for the relics of St. Apollinaris of Ravenna sometime in the 14th century. The 14th-century crypt was incorporated into the present neogothic church, built in 1839–42. The grounds of this richly frescoed church offer wonderful views of the Middle Rhine Valley.

3. Ludendorff Bridge and Friedenmuseum (Peace Museum)
The fateful story of Remagen Bridge and Hitler's final months is brought to life at this compact museum housed in one of the famous bridge's towers. Built during World War I, Remagen bridge was the last surviving crossing point over the Rhine in the waning days of WWII and a crucial German line of defense. On March 7, 1945 allied forces approached the Rhine and finding the bridge still standing, a major surprise still referred to as "the miracle of Remagen," were able to overcome German defenders and bring in six divisions before the bridge's collapse ten days later. The remains of the bridge and museum are a scenic 15-minute walk from the old town along the Pheinpromenade.

4. Roman Museum
You'll know pretty much all there is to know about three centuries of Remagen's Roman past and a lot more about the daily life of a Roman soldier after a visit here. In the basement, eight grave excavations open a window into early Roman burial customs and artifacts found on the site, and in nearby digs, illustrate the life and times of the ancient inhabitants.
