In eastern Germany, the small town of Augustusburg has reopened to tourists, provided they take a coronavirus test before entering and the result is negative.
Anyone who wants to visit Augustusburg must register to receive a QR code. Once there, they must take an antigen test. If the test is negative, they can use their QR code to enter the restaurants, hotels, shops and museums.
The project is limited to 360 visitors a day, without restrictions for Augustusburgers,
"Now is the only time we can still do it," said Saxon minister of economic affairs, Martin Dulig during a visit to Augustusburg. "The numbers continue to rise, which means that it is already a brave decision that we have made to enable these pilots," reports
