The Bundesstraße 58 (abbr. B58) is a german Federal Highway in northwestern North Rhine-Westphalia, starting at the Dutch border near Venlo, going approximately 169 km (105 mi) until merging into the Bundesstraße 55 in Langenberg.

History

Napoleonic era

The western part of the B58 between Venlo and Wesel was originally built as a part of Napoleons Route imperiale 3, a road between Paris and Hamburg. The designation was later dropped under Prussian rule.

20th century

In 1932 the Fernverkehrsstraßen lit. 'long-distance traffic roads' were introduced and parts of the modern B58 between the Dutch border and Haltern were named FVS 58. Later the renamed B58 was extended to Langenberg, where it meets the B55.

Bypasses

Multiple bypasses around towns were built in recent years, most significantly around Beckum, Ahlen and the B58n around Wesel, which as of 2026 is partially under construction.
