Wyhl
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wyhl is a small municipality in South-western Germany which has become famous in the 1970s for its role in the anti-nuclear movement.
In February 1975 environmentalists seized the building site for a nuclear power plant for several months and established a village of huts there. After the occupants left the site in November several trials led to a delay and the plans were given up completely in the 1980s. Therefore, Wyhl is often referred to as the first great success of the German Anti-nuclear power Movement with an announcement effect for other similar conflicts like Brokdorf, Wackersdorf or Gorleben.
