bad quote - Bitterfeld
bad quote

Favorite thing: "Bist du nicht von dieser Welt, so kommst du wohl aus Bitterfeld ?!" (If you do not come from this world you are surely from Bitterfeld). This bad quote is quite common in Germany and originally describes the bad living conditions in Bitterfeld. After the industrialisation but mainly during GDR times this region had the worst air quality due to heavy industry, open mining and a huge coal power plant. After reunification most factories closed down and the air quality is now much better.
