Leaving brings a slight relief of pain
In the picturesque Kandertal village, a small community named Mitholz is currently undergoing a significant change. The serene landscape, once characterised by the rustling of leaves and the chirping of birds, is now overshadowed by the constant hum of uncertainty.
Approximately one year ago, a visit was made to Mitholz, a visit that would forever alter the course of the village's history. During this visit, meetings were held with individuals who had to leave the village, their faces etched with a mix of sadness and resignation.
The root of this upheaval can be traced back to an old munitions depot that lies within Mitholz. Despite the passage of time, this relic from the past continues to cast a long shadow over the present. The residual risk it poses has led to the departure of some residents, a slow and painful process that continues to this day.
Among those leaving is Dory Schmid, who is slowly departing from Mitholz. The details of her departure are not widely known, but it is clear that the old munitions depot is a significant factor. The depot, still causing concern, necessitates the evacuation of residents like Schmid.
Gisella Nünlist, a member of the local council, has been at the forefront of efforts to address this issue. Her dedication and commitment to the welfare of the community are evident in her tireless work.
The Beobachter, a reputable news outlet, is shedding light on this situation through a series of articles. This series, which includes texts, graphics, and podcasts, can be found on their website. The articles provide a comprehensive look at Mitholz, offering insights into the lives of those who have to leave and the efforts being made to ensure a safer future for the village.
As summer recedes in Mitholz, grey clouds gather over the mountains, mirroring the mood of the village. Yet, amidst the gloom, there are signs of hope. David Reichen, one of the residents who had to leave, is settling into his new life. His story serves as a reminder that while the old munitions depot may cast a long shadow, it does not have to define the future of Mitholz.
In the face of adversity, the people of Mitholz continue to persevere, their spirit undeterred. As the Beobachter's series unfolds, we can only hope that it will bring about the change that Mitholz so desperately needs.
