Peaceful Christmas singing in Bad Nauheim despite the tragic event

At the traditional Christmas singing of the EC Bad Nauheim on Saturday evening, December 22, 2024, the festive atmosphere became noticeable despite shocking events in Magdeburg. Over 3000 people gathered in the Colonel Knight Stadium and held burning lights in the hand. This gesture should demonstrate solidarity with the victims of a tragic assassination, in which a BMW raced to the Christmas market in Magdeburg and demanded several lives, such as the Frankfurter Neue Presse reported. District Administrator Jan Weckler and the angel chairman Michael Richly recalled the victims in their speeches and demanded a minute's commemoration. Richly emphasized the need not to be given the joy of Christmas from violence.

solemn atmosphere despite mourning

During singing, traditional wise wise guys such as "Let's be happy and cheerful" and "Your child's children come" were listed by the choirs present and the Wettertaler brass music. The participants, including many families, were moved by the festive atmosphere and the opportunity to donate for a good cause. "It's a great atmosphere and it's about a good thing," said a visitor. Larger security measures were not taken in the short time, but the mood was consistently characterized by hope for peace. The red angels, the organizers of the singing event, have now organized this event for the eleventh time and thus demonstrated the strength of the community.

In another context, Steffen Schneider, the head of the spa and service department in Bad Nauheim, has accepted new challenges in order to further develop the city as a health resort, such as the Frankfurter Rundschau . Schneider, who is also the deputy chairman of the Hessian Salvary Association, is committed to promoting Bad Nauheim as an ideal place for relaxation and health. This initiative reflects the commitment that can also be felt in the city during the Christmas season.
