An earthquake of magnitude 2.6 occurred only 12 minutes ago 18 km southwest of Freiburg, Germany, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) reported.
The quake hit at a shallow depth of 12.50 km beneath the epicenter near Freiburg, Freiburg Region, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany, in the evening on Monday, May 12th, 2025, at 8:06 pm local time. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from France’s Military Applications Division – Earth and Environmental Science (CEA) which listed the quake at magnitude 3.0. Other agencies reporting the same quake include France’s Réseau National de Surveillance Sismique (RéNaSS) at magnitude 2.6, and the Swiss Seismological Service (SED) at magnitude 2.7.
Towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Hartheim (pop. 4,500) located 3 km from the epicenter. In Mullheim (pop. 18,100, 11 km away), Freiburg (pop. 216,000, 18 km away), Emmendingen (pop. 27,400, 28 km away), Waldkirch (pop. 20,200, 32 km away), Schopfheim (pop. 19,400, 32 km away), Loerrach (pop. 47,000, 33 km away), and Weil am Rhein (pop. 29,500, 35 km away), the quake was probably not
