Budapest’s low Danube exposes two German soldiers and a DKW motorcycle buried for 80 years
Unusually low water levels in Budapest’s Danube River have exposed Second World War remains hidden for around 80 years. Recovery teams found the bodies of two Wehrmacht soldiers, their well-preserved identity discs, a German military motorbike, anti-tank mines and other wartime objects near Batthyány Square. The finds could help identify the soldiers and reveal more about Budapest’s final wartime days.
