Pascha is a major landmark in Cologne
One of Europe's largest brothels has filed for bankruptcy, after being hit by Germany's anti-coronavirus measures.
The 10-floor Pascha is a major landmark in the city of Cologne. "We are at an end," the brothel's director, Armin , told local paper Express.
Prostitution has been outlawed in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia since the outbreak of the virus.
Some 120 prostitutes usually work at Pascha. It employs around 60 staff including cooks and hairdressers.
Mr Lobscheid criticised the German authorities' handling of the pandemic - particularly their ability to be clear when the business would be allowed to resume.
He said officials would tell them every two weeks that they would not be able to reopen.
