It’s a tradition that many Austrians have grown fond of – shooting rockets and firing fireworks on New Year’s Eve. Although this has lost importance in recent years due to environmental concerns and animal welfare. The “Krone” discovered what to look out for when buying fireworks during a local inspection in the border area between Austria and the Czech Republic.
The approximately 5,000 parking spaces are bursting at the seams, the bustle to Excalibur City at the former Klein-Haugsdorf border crossing is great, as every year just before Christmas. Buy a gift here, have a quick manicure done there, prepare for the elaborate Christmas dinner in the castle restaurant – there is something for everyone in the no man’s land between the Czech Republic and Austria. Also for rocket and firecracker enthusiasts.
