Corona easing from March 1st in Bavaria: What is now opening again - and what is still banned

While experts are warning of the third wave, Bavaria will be cheerfully relaxed and opened from Monday.

An overview of the Corona rules in the Free State from March 1st.

Munich - From caution and prudence to opening orgy?

Things don't change that dramatically in Bavaria at the turn of the month.

Many strict corona rules still apply from March 1st.

First and foremost the strictest contact restrictions in Germany: Only one household plus one additional person remains the upper limit in Bavaria.

Even if even Ilse Aigner no longer understands that.

The curfew from 10 p.m. and the FFP2 mask requirement also remain.

With a few exceptions, schools also continue to offer distance learning (see below for details).

Nevertheless - there is a lot going on at the opening front.

So that you don't lose track of all the discussions about corona easing and wave warnings before the Corona summit on Wednesday, here is a short summary of what will apply in Bavaria from March 1st.

Corona easing in Bavaria: Hairdressers are opening again - and are fully booked for weeks

The most important news for many shaggy heads: Hairdressers will be open from Monday (March 1st).

The fact that the appointment falls on a Monday, when it is well known that most hairdressers are traditionally closed, immediately caused amusement.

But before you google wildly whether your favorite hairstylist will open tomorrow anyway - leave it alone.

Most hairdressers are

booked out for weeks anyway

, according to

BR

.

In Bayreuth, a date auction on Ebay even brought in 422 euros.

Even Markus Söder will have a hard time personally, despite the frighteningly long sideburns.

In the salon there is of course still a mask requirement despite the relaxation.

However, a prior test requirement, as discussed again and again elsewhere, does not apply.

Openings in Bavaria from March 1st: "Body-close services" allowed again

Behind the somewhat cryptic word "body-friendly service companies" hide not only the hairdressers, but also all long-missing beauty facilities or studios that are necessary for the purpose of body hygiene and body care.

This includes the nail salons and other foot care establishments, but also manicures, facial care and so on.

They all open from Monday.

New corona rules in Bavaria: Everything from garden centers to hardware stores will also open from March 1st

Hardware stores, tree nurseries, flower shops as well as garden centers and nurseries and in general everything that green, sprouts, blooms according to Goethe, will also be open.

Thanks to Markus Söder and the spring.

The opening of the DIY store in particular was not well received in the neighboring state of Baden-Württemberg.

A uniform approach at the border was called for.

The Bavarian state government let the criticism of these easing bounce off.

True to the motto: If already, then already.

It remains exciting to see how many gardeners and how many do-it-yourselfers will storm the markets from Monday onwards.

Long queues can be expected in any case.

The DIY stores have already announced to

the

BR

that they will only open under very strict, self-imposed conditions.

Hagebaumarkt, for example, wants to strictly control and not allow more than one customer per 50 square meters.

One customer per 10 square meters would be permitted up to an area of ​​800 square meters, and only one customer per 20 square meters from 801 square meters.

Hornbach also wants to strictly control each individual department so that, for example, not everything in the garden department is clenched.

There are also strict one-way street regulations and reduced parking spaces.

After easing, music schools are again offering one-to-one tuition

Good news also for friends of beautiful tones.

According to the new Corona rules, music schools are again allowed to hold individual lessons.

With wind instruments also without a face mask.

And what about the schools in Bavaria?

The corona rules of February 22nd still apply here.

Primary schools are allowed to take alternating classes.

Graduating classes can even return to face-to-face teaching entirely.

Most of the daycare centers in Munich are again working on a regular basis.

Big but with the corona rules: The incidence

One thing is clear: there remains a natural corona upper limit for all openings.

As soon as the 7-day incidence in a region exceeds the magic mark 100 again, everything is shut down again.
