Glessen is a small village located in the Rheinisches Braunkohlerevier, specifically in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It is known for its proximity to lignite mines and power plants in the region. Glessen has been affected by the mining activities and the associated environmental concerns, such as noise, dust, and potential land subsidence. However, efforts have been made to address these issues and mitigate the impact on the local community.
