It is located next to the village Andau (Burgenland, Austria ).History Starting with the first turmoils in summer 1956, more and more Hungarians fled to the western world over the border to Austria. Even though it was just a small, wooden bridge over a small river, the Bridge at Andau was the escape route for about 70,000 Hungarian people during the Hungarian Revolution. After crossing the border, fugitives had to walk a nine kilometer long road, the "Road To Freedom" (Fluchtstrasse ), to the village Andau, where they were received with great hospitality by the inhabitants of Andau and the surrounding villages. On November 21, 1956, the bridge was blasted by Soviet troops. Today In 1996, with the 40th anniversary of the Hungarian Revolution, the bridge was not truly reconstructed but built anew as a symbol of tolerance and helpfulness. Organised as a unique joint operation of the Austrian and Hungarian armies, it replaced a stub bridge, which was eventually built by peasants for transportation reasons. At the same time, the Road Of Freedom was used for an open air exhibition with the title "Road Of Books, , Gy-R-Moson-Sopron-County~~Books-Llc, 999999999, Gy R-Moson-Sopron County, Books Llc, 1156721598, General Books LLC, , , , , General Books LLC<
