Dies ist die Luftqualität von Google Maps.
Es ist ziemlich normal, außer dieser Blase an der Grenze zu Deutschland. Was könnte es sein?

Peanut-shaped fart, duh
Yo momma
There’s nothing in terms of industry or power generation.
My best guess is the specific relief of the area combined with climactic conditions, means that normal pollution from small towns and roads gets trapped.
I also found that there is a measuring station for the Rural Area in Vianden so it might be that weights that area more vs elsewhere where info is more sparse.
See the government air quality site.

Which pollutant are we talking about? If the answer is Ozone, I have an ELI5 answer.
Urban areas tend to have a higher concentration of nitrogen oxide in the air, because of combustion engines, industry and all that.
NOx is bad. But we have a common enemy, Ozone. NOx destroys Ozone. In rural areas however, there is less NOx in the air (which is good) but Ozone can be transported by winds to rural areas where it encounters less predators (NOx) and linger around for a long period of time (which is bad).
Note that it changes hour by hour. Sometimes Vianden has air quality 17 (!!)
On the German side they have health resorts where people pay to come and breathe the same air
We’re exceedingly blessed out here
When it’s rounded shape like that, It’s usually from industry + wind
