The Grünwald castle remains dark from now on, because Grünwald’s friends have turned off the light. The association announces that, as part of the nationwide efforts to reduce electricity consumption, it has decided, after nine years of lighting up the castle, to forgo night-time lighting of the landmark above the Isar valley.
“Especially when we all have to save to get through autumn and winter well, it’s actually incomprehensible why public buildings are still brightly lit at night. We think it’s right that Grünwald’s friends are also setting a good example,” they share With. They hope to encourage even more fellow citizens, shops and landlords to switch off the lights in their houses, advertisements and company signs at night. “If we all reduce power consumption together at night, not so much gas has to flow into power generation and can be used for heat and in production,” the statement said.
