@Carlos@moppels.bar @Amelia@transfem.social ye thats mostly because of the african tectonic plate pushing against the european one (the reason why the alps exists). earthquakes are quite common in my region, but probably a bit more rare in the eifel.http://www.seismo.ethz.ch/en/earthquakes/switzerland/last-90-days/
@Amelia@transfem.social Some time ago, I learned from @puniko@mk.absturztau.be that there are many earthquakes in Switzerland, and I think there are many in the Eifel in Germany, too.
