The changing landscape, shaped by wars, fires and climate change, is particularly impressive in the surrounding forests. Here, the increasing demand for wood and recent climatic changes have repeatedly reshaped the image of the forest. Agriculture has also changed over the centuries. Progressive mechanization has resulted in larger fields with fewer crops. An important turning point was the discovery of the mineral water springs around 1900, which industrialized Germete and still characterize the village today. **A look into the future** The recent years of extreme drought and infestation by the bark beetle have taken their toll on the forests. New management concepts with different tree species are being tested to make the forest future-proof. The village community is actively supporting the reforestation projects. Agriculture also has to adapt. More variety is intended to increase yield security and further change the landscape.
