Because of the threats posed by the storm, numerous facilities in Thuringia were closed as a precaution on Thursday.
Among other things, the city administrations in Erfurt and Suhl announced that the Zoopark Erfurt and the zoo Suhl will not open.
In Erfurt, all municipal cemeteries were also closed, so that planned burials and funeral ceremonies were canceled.
Erfurt - The Thuringian Palaces and Gardens Foundation warned against entering their gardens and parks.
Despite regular checks, there is a risk of falling branches and entire trees could be uprooted.
The proximity of buildings should also be avoided, as roof tiles or slate slabs could loosen under the wind load.
