Schwerin is desperately looking for 86-year-old Gisela Schaerig!
The city of Schwerin is in turmoil: 86-year-old Gisela Hedwig Margarete Schaerig has been missing since July 1, 2025. The elderly lady was last seen in her group home in Paulsstadt at 1:30 p.m. The Schwerin police immediately asked the public for help after previous measures were unsuccessful. She passes on the hope of finding information about the whereabouts of the missing people to the citizens.
The description of the missing woman provides important information about her appearance: Gisela Schaerig is around 1.50 meters tall, slim and has a heavily bent forward upper body. At the time of her disappearance she was wearing black trousers and a black and pink top. The police station in Schwerin can be reached on 0385 5180-2224 for information, and the emergency number 110 can also be used to report information. This information was also confirmed by the MV Police.
Concern for the elderly
The situation is alarming because between 200 and 300 people are reported missing in Germany every day. The cases of older people are particularly worrying as they often have health problems. Police say special attention is paid to elderly missing persons cases as there is often a threat to life or health. People missing for more than a year only make up around 3 percent of all cases, but the clearance rate for missing children is a remarkable 99.8 percent, so there is a greater chance of a happy ending, as the FR reports.
The investigation to find Gisela Schaerig is an example of how important it is to deal with such sensitive cases quickly and decisively. The police have already launched a large-scale search operation to find the lady as every minute counts.
Joint efforts required
The call to participate is addressed to the entire population. Any clue, no matter how insignificant it may seem, could help bring Gisela Schaerig back home. The city of Schwerin hopes for the solidarity of its citizens. Anyone who has seen Gisela or knows anything about her whereabouts is asked to come forward immediately.
It remains to be hoped that the joint efforts of the police and the public will soon lead to positive news, because in the end one thing counts most: seeing Gisela again. Until then, people in Schwerin are worried and hoping that the search will be successful.
