Hiking
December 26, 1999, the day when «Lothar» swept across the country, will be remembered 20 years later by most of those who experienced it.
Many also remember exactly where they were and how they experienced it.
The storm uprooted centuries-old trees, cleared entire forests and destroyed houses. 14 people died.
The hurricane moved with wind peaks of up to 272 kilometers per hour from northern France via southern Germany and Switzerland to Austria - more than twice as strong as a storm needs to be classified as a hurricane.
