Resettlement
These are some pictures from my documentary series about resettlements and about the change of nature due to the industrial degradation of lignite.
The villages that are located in the mining area are completely demolished and the inhabitants are relocated.
In a judgment from 2013, the highest German court ruled that relocations and expropriations for the production of brown coal did not violate the "fundamental right to a home".
Some villages were more than 700 years old.

I loved the sublime light that looks through the walls and windows of the houses! Keep it up!
Glad you like it and thanks for coming by!
