Map shows the most risky earthquake areas in Europe

Date:

At least 321 people were killed and more than 62,000 homes destroyed – this is the sad result of the magnitude 5.6 earthquake that hit the Indonesian island of Java on Monday last week. But also in Europe the earth trembles again and again. Heavy damage and deaths are regrettable, for example in Italy. A new map shows where the risk is greatest.

In Europe alone, earthquakes in the 20th century claimed more than 200,000 lives and caused damage worth more than €250 billion. Comprehensive analyzes of seismic hazard and seismic risk are therefore important to reduce the impact of catastrophic earthquakes. To date, these cannot be prevented or accurately predicted.
