The European route 55 (short: E 55 ) runs from the northern point Helsingborg ( Sweden ) to the southern point Kalamata ( Greece ). It is 3,305 km long.

From Helsingborg, the European route 4 connects to the north , which leads through Sweden to Tornio ( Finland ). Efforts were made to exchange the E 4 signs for E 55 signs and thus to extend the E 55. For practical - and probably sentimental - reasons, however, it has so far not been used.

After the opening of the east or reunification of Germany in 1989 until the route was moved to a newly built motorway (before / around) in 2009 and the expansion of the European Union, the route south of the German-Czech border (especially on the Ruská road in Dubí ) was designated as "Longest street in Europe" known with up to 50 brothels .
