history

Former geographic center of the European Union on Schulzengrundbach (in the middle of the picture) in Oberwestern

From July 1 to December 31, 2013, when Croatia joined the European Union , the geographic center of the EU was on a meadow to the left of the Schulzengrundbach (location) on the outskirts of Oberwestern. This location was marked with a flag from the municipality of Westerngrund . With Mayotte joining, this point moved about 500 m to the south on January 1, 2014 and to Gadheim on January 31, 2020 due to Brexit .
