Mayor of Wiesauer distributes playthings to kindergartens
The Upper Palatinate region in Germany is experiencing a mix of challenges and positive developments. Here's a snapshot of some of the latest news:
Traditional Mitterteich Zoiglstube Oppl to Close
After many years of service, the traditional Mitterteicher Zoiglstube Oppl in Mitterteich will be closing its doors in November. However, cask sales will continue, offering patrons a chance to take a piece of Oppl home with them.
Climate Change and Alpine Tourism
The retreat of glaciers in the Alps presents a significant challenge to tourism. On a more positive note, a ski lift that had been buried under snow for 50 years has reappeared due to glacier melt, offering a glimpse into the region's past.
Road Accidents and Injuries
Unfortunate incidents have occurred on the B 299 near Grafenwöhr. A driver fell asleep at the wheel, leading to a collision with another vehicle. Fortunately, all parties involved remained largely unharmed. In a separate incident, a man working with a tractor on a field above a slope lost his footing, resulting in a serious injury.
Mayor Toni Dutz's Green Christmas
Mayor Toni Dutz of Wiesau has been promoting a green Christmas for several years now. By forgoing Christmas cards, he saves around 500 euros, which he directly benefits the children by providing them with toys. His motto for Christmas gifts is "Kauf vor Ort," encouraging people to buy locally. This year, the toys were provided by a local specialty store.
Award-Winning Breads and a Touching Tribute
The Upper Palatinate country bread, the Swiss mountain bread, and the genuine stone oven bread from the Weiden bakery Brunner have been awarded top grades. Meanwhile, Laura Dahlmeier's mother shared a jewelry piece that many followers see as a moving reminder of the former biathlete.
Supporting Local Businesses
In an effort to boost local economy, Mayor Toni Dutz encourages people to buy Christmas presents from local businesses instead of online or from large chains. By doing so, we can help preserve the unique charm and character of our region.
