Greenpeace activists were occupying the neo-Romanesque church of St Lambertus, known locally as the Immerather Dom, in Immerath, Germany, on January 8, the day of its scheduled demolition to make way for a lignite mine.

Most of Immerath’s population has already been relocated after years of large-scale mining in the area. Credit: Greenpeace eV via Storyful
