Grief for Rainer Prachtl: Landes flags on half mast in MV!

A legendary politician leaves the stage! Rainer Prachtl, the first President of the Landtag of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, died on October 12 at the age of 74. His sudden absence leaves a large gap that will be closed on Wednesday in Neubrandenburg with his family - with his burial!

In order to honor this important personality, State Interior Minister Pegel has ordered a nationwide mourning. On this day, the flags on all public buildings in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania will blow on half mast. This is not only a gesture of respect, but also an opportunity for the entire region to remember a man who was significantly involved in the development of the state constitution and was passionate about social issues for years. His commitment in politics and social areas will remain unforgettable, because his impressive career began in 1990 when he took on the historical role of the first President of the Landtag.

State mourning act in the prospect

Another highlight will be the state mourning act on November 12, which is also dedicated to the memory of Rainer Prachtl. The grief for the loss of a fellow human being that is estimated will employ and turn on the minds in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. Prachtl, whose work was visible everywhere, left many traces - in politics and beyond.
