Schongau – There are interesting dates to note in the “Climate Spring in the Oberland” event series. For the first time this year, thanks to the initiative of Schongau's climate manager Julia Kurnoth, the city of Schongau is also on board. And the climate protection expert also easily took an offer in the market town of Peiting under her wing.
