٠٠:٠٠:٥٥The stunning Northern Lights, or aurora borealis, were visible over Bavaria on Friday evening.
Footage from Munich shows the green and pink night sky, with the phenomenon seen across the Northern Hemisphere due to increased solar activity.
Weather agencies reported that the solar storm, consisting of a series of solar flares and coronal mass ejections - large expulsion of plasma and magnetic field from the sun - also knocked out communication networks.
The Northern Lights, usually seen much closer to the pole, appear when charged particles interact with gases in the Earth's atmosphere.
