With the clock ticking down to Brexit, a tiny German village is preparing to tak...
A European flag flutters near a red-white pole, marking the new geographical centre of the European Union in case of Brexit in Gadheim, Germany, April 8, 2019. The town of less than 100 residents prepares to become the geographical centre of the European Union after Brexit. Meanwhile, the EU's current geoegraphical centre, Westerngrund, just 60 kilometres away, will lose its title.
It takes about an hour to drive the 55 kilometers from the current midpoint, in the municipality of Westerngrund, in southern Germany, to Gadheim. A sign proudly reading the “future center of the EU” already greets visitors outside the hamlet.For Westerngrund, it will be a sad day when it waves goodbye to the title it gained when Croatia joined the EU in 2013. The exact spot is currently marked with a plaque, a map, and the EU flag, while multiple signs highlight Westerngrund’s claim to fame.
Gadheim is too small to have its own mayor, and falls under the jurisdiction of the mayor of nearby Veitshoechheim, Juergen Goetz. He hopes the new title could put the village firmly on the map.
