Schindler's blue colour factory is located directly on the Zwickauer Mulde river and belongs to the Zschorlau district of Albernau in the Saxon Ore Mountains. Since 2019, it has been part of the Schneeberg Mining Landscape and a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Erzgebirge/Krušnohoří Mining Region. On 27 February 1649, the Schneeberg merchant Erasmus Schindler bought a plot of land to build a blue paint factory on the Zwickauer Mulde near Albernau. On 4 May 1649, he received the privilege to build a blue dye mill from Elector Johann Georg I. As Schindlerswerk GmbH & Co. KG, it is probably the world's oldest paint factory still in production. It is associated with a long tradition of producing blue cobalt pigments and the commercial manufacture of colour pigments. In more recent times, production has been expanded to include various paints. The company also produces laundry blue, Schindlerswerk, Zschorlau OT Albernau, Saxony, Germany, Europe

FRA - BRITTANY - AN AUTONOMOUS COMMUNITY IN CENTRAL BRETAGNEIn the remote countryside of central Brittany, at the end of a road that the GPS has difficulty pointing out, one ends up reaching the place called Kerlanic, called by its residents "Oasis Kerlanic". He was nicknamed that because, for someone who tries to escape the frenzy of our society, it is as if he were in the desert and found, in the middle of nowhere, an oasis.It is a place where we live in autonomy and in harmony with nature, a place where everyone is welcome and who preaches an alternative lifestyle.FRA - BRETAGNE - UNE COMMUNAUTÉ AUTONOME EN CENTRE BRETAGNEDans la campagne reculée du Centre Bretagne, au bout dune route que le GPS peine à indiquer, on finit par atteindre le lieu-dit Kerlanic, appelé par ses résidents « Oasis Kerlanic ».
