Schloss Auerbach in the foreground is only 14 km in a direct linear distance to the atomic power station Biblis. That’s about 25km from where I live.

In the other direction there is the atomic power station Philippsburg, that’s 35 km away from (direct line).

To me that was a constant anxiety in the back of my mind. I demonstrated against Biblis as a teenager when Biblis was built and after the Fukushima disaster 2011.Considering the radius of contamination after a possible worst-case scenario my hometown would be uninhabitable from two directions.

Biblis (by then 30 years old) stopped was taken off the grid in 2011 and has been in a process of being dismanted ever since. Philippsburg was stopped in 2019.
