The jewel that is the Weissensee Nature Park must be protected. One person who has been fighting for this for decades is Franz Schier. We met him at his favorite place.

"We want to make sure that our jewel, Lake Weissensee, and the surrounding nature reserve are preserved for future generations," says Franz Schier during a visit to the "Kärntner Krone". Before the tour around Lake Weissensee with the 69-year-old, who everyone calls "Naturpark-Franze", there is refreshing water under an apple tree.
