Event ship drifted against bridge
On April 26, 2025, the "Dauerwelle" of the University of the Arts in Bremen broke lose from its fixed berth on the Weser and drifted against the Wilhelm- Kaisen- Bridge. The reason was still unclear. The exact cause is currently being investigated. A passenger ship initially attempted to stop and tow the stricken vessel. Because that failed, five boats from the police, fire department, and DLRG (German Lifeboat Association) towed the event ship to the Neustad Embankment in front of the Stephani Bridge and moored it there. Later that evening, they brought it toaberth near the Bürgermeister-Smidt Bridge. A helicopter was on site as a precautionary measure to search for people. On the evening, experts inspected the Wilhelm-Kaisen Bridge for damage. The results are not yet available.
