In 2024, Birkenau will receive the world's first sundial sovereignty and the sundial association will be involved. The sovereign will represent the municipality of Birkenau for one year and will therefore be Birkenau's sundial ambassador beyond the town's borders. Further information can be found here.
The sundial association in Birkenau was delighted to receive a generous donation of 250 euros. The sum was the result of a creative fundraising campaign by a local supermarket.
This sundial made of crowncaps has won a certificate of honor in the category "Ecological sundial" in the competition of the French sundial magazine "Cadrans solaires pour tous".
Last year the sundial at the city hall was destroyed by a storm. Now, just in time with the inauguration of the new mayor Milan Mapplassary the new sundial decorates the wall. See the newspaper article.
