The "Reichsbürger" will not open a shop to sell food and as a meeting place for members in Hasselroth.

Main-Kinzig District Administrator Thorsten Stolz (SPD) and Hasselroth Mayor Matthias Pfeifer (SWG Hasselroth) rated the withdrawal on Wednesday as an “important success for the strong civil society, which in Hasselroth and the region immediately showed a clear edge against these enemies of the constitution”.

On Tuesday, the plans of a Reich Citizens' Organization called "Kingdom of Germany" became known to set up a branch office in the district of Neuenhasslau.

For this weekend, an "open day" was invited to a "Paradise Garden" on Bahnhofstrasse.

After the plans became known on the Internet, an alliance of politicians, churches and other institutions was formed in Hasselroth, which took a stand against the project.

Regardless of the withdrawal of the fictitious "kingdom", a protest action is to take place on Saturday.

Pfeifer announced on Wednesday that the municipality does not consider the cancellation of the opening date to be sufficient.

Legal remedies would have to be examined in order to prevent the “crude project”.
