All balusters are installed now

Blacksmiths from California and Russia, from New Zealand and the Netherlands
and Belgium, from Israel and the Republic of the Niger, from Switzerland and
Poland, from France and Austria came to Kolbermoor in order to attend the
symbolic handover of the third bridge of the friendship on 10th August 2008
to Kolbermoor's Mayor Peter Kloo and the deputy district administrator of
the German district of Rosenheim, Dieter Kannengiesser. The international
blacksmiths came as well in order to practice international understanding,
to maintain together the technical exchange and to demonstrate a peaceful
cooperation.
The bridge with all its individual balusters, some of them were forged
during the Blacksmithing Biannual in Kolbermoor, stands at present in the
Rainer-street in Kolbermoor, just in front of the church Holy Trinity. The
original thought was to deconstruct the bridge right after the blacksmiths
meeting, let it be galvanized and set it up again at "the six houses "in
Kolbermoor. In discussions during the blacksmith biennale the idea came up
to leave the bridge in its current condition and to only galvanize the
bottom part. Mayor Peter Kloo said that he will discuss the different
solutions and possible locations with architects. The official inauguration
of this peace sculpture will take place in 2009, when Kolbermoor is host of
the annual meeting of the Ring of European Cities with Iron Works.
