Our world is very strange. You will find many such surprising things here, which people get surprised to know about. Today we are going to tell you about an airport, which is very unique in itself.
The specialty of this airport is that when you land here, you can exit into 2 different countries simultaneously. That is, if you exit from one door, you will find a different country, if you exit from the other, you will reach a different country (EuroAirport Basel Mulhouse Freiburg)! However, a third country is also close to this airport, so it can be said that this airport fulfills the needs of 3 different countries. Not only this, the laws of 2 different countries are applicable at this airport.
We are talking about Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg Airport. Although this Euro Airport is in France, it provides great convenience to the people of Switzerland, France and Germany. Its location is the most unique aspect. It is adjacent to all three countries. In this airport, the customs borders of Switzerland and France are also under the same roof. In such a situation, if you exit from one exit gate, you will be in Switzerland and if you exit from the other, you will reach France.
Laws of different countries are applicable
As we said earlier, the airport is in France, but it is divided into Swiss and French custom zones. Because of this, laws of different countries are applicable in the airport. The responsibility of airport security is given to the security agencies of France. Sometimes they inspect the Swiss side irregularly. But mainly the responsibility of security and customs of the Swiss side lies with the Swiss security agencies. Passengers can also use Euro or Swiss Franc as currency as per their convenience.
The airport was built to establish mutual cooperation between the countries.
In 1930, the idea came up to build an airport that would show cooperation between France and Switzerland, but this work stopped after the Second World War. However, this project started again from 1946 and started showing cooperation between the countries after the war. Most of the funding for building the airport was given by Switzerland, while France gave its land. There is a way to enter three cities of the three countries from this airport. These cities are – Freiburg am Bresgo, Germany; Mulhouse, France; and Basel, Switzerland. The board of this airport includes advisors from France, Germany and Switzerland.
