The last strong earthquake swarm in the region Vogtland/NW-Bohemia occurred between August and November 2000 with about 10000 micro-earthquakes at magnitudes up to 3.7. On the territory of Germany the seismic activity was monitored both by means of permanent and mobile stations. Mobile stations were installed by the Seismological Central Observatory at Erlangen (SZGRF) in co-operation with the ''Geo-Forschungs-Zentrum''-(GFZ)-Potsdam and the University of Potsdam. The objects of this paper are: (1) the presentation of seismic stations on the German side of the earthquake region during the swarm 2000, (2) the comparison of the frequency-time and magnitude-time distribution of the recent swarm 2000 with previous swarms in the 20th century.
