Stormy Night at Waldbad Camping Platz in Stendal, Saxony-Anhalt: A Scene of Chaos
Catastrophic weather wreaks havoc on campsite area. - Storm Ravages Camping Ground, Leaving Devastation in Its Wake
Hey there!
A massive storm recently hit the north of Saxony-Anhalt, and it left quite the mess on a campsite near Stendal, known as the Waldbad Camping Platz Wischer. Some call it apocalyptic - trees uprooted, branches snapped off like toothpicks, and caravans and tents flattened like pancakes. The crews can't access the site right now, and it's not safe for guests to return. "We were this close to a nightmare scenario," a long-term camper spoke to the German Press Agency. "It was fucking horrifying."
