Rectangle over Gronau (Germany) · Germany
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
My husband and me woke up by a sudden loud sound from outside at around 3 am. We went on the balcony and saw a huge rectangular ship in the sky hovering there for at least 20 minutes. Then it slowly hovered sideways. It had three lights: blue, white, red. When hovering to the side, the white light went off . It definitely wasn't a drone nor helicopter. The size was as big as a house and it was high up in the sky. Neighbours were coming out to check up as well. Anonymous source. We observe that there no longer is a 'West Germany.' PD
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #165005). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
