On Saturday, September 12, 2026, the focus at the German Watch Museum Glash\u00fctte was not only on the watches this time, but also on cycling. The European Peace Ride \u2013 the follow-up event to the legendary \u201cFriedensfahrt\u201d (Peace Ride) \u2013 made a stop on the museum forecourt in the afternoon. Today, the tour no longer has a competitive character, but the route and schedule were still quite demanding. Some prominent ex-cyclists were also there, e.g. Thomas Barth (former captain of the GDR Peace Ride team), Marcus Burghardt (German champion 2017, stage winner of the Tour de France 2008), Ji\u0159\u00ed Je\u017eek from the Czech Republic (multiple Paralympic champion and world champion) or Lukas Kaufmann from Austria (mountain biker and extreme athlete).<\/p>\n

Many of the participants also looked at a small exhibition in the foyer of the Watch Museum. The connection between the Peace Ride and Glash\u00fctte already existed. On April 25 and 26, 1965, the GDR Peace Ride team led by its captain Klaus Ampler was a guest in our town. The background was the start of a major advertising campaign by the Glash\u00fctte and Ruhla watch factories. During the visit to Glash\u00fctte in 1965, the athletes did not miss the opportunity to take a look at the production of the VEB Glash\u00fctter Uhrenbetriebe.<\/p>\n

In addition to numerous photos commemorating the visit 61 years ago, historical exhibits were also on display, such as the watch models advertised in the campaign at the time, original racing jerseys or a racing bike from the 1965 Peace Ride. As a special highlight, a current racing bike from the German professional cyclist and Tour de France participant Max Kanter was presented. This impressively showed how cycling has developed in recent decades \u2013 just like the Glash\u00fctte watches. The joy was particularly great that Max Kanter visited the museum in person on Saturday afternoon.<\/p>\n
