Eurojackpot: One Million Won in the Wetteraukreis - Hesse’s Latest Millionaire Wins Over €1M in Eurojackpot Drawing
A fortunate resident from the Wetterau district in Hesse has become a millionaire overnight. The player matched enough numbers in Friday’s Eurojackpot drawing to win over €1 million—just one number short of the €17 million jackpot. The winning ticket, worth exactly €1,012,843.50, was sold in the Wetterau area. Lottery officials confirmed the prize but did not reveal the winner’s name or location within the district. This win marks the first time this year that someone in Hesse has claimed a seven-figure lottery prize. While the top jackpot of €17 million went unclaimed, the Wetterau player secured the next-highest tier with their near-perfect match. The prize money will now be transferred to the anonymous winner. Lottery organisers have not released further details about the ticket or the winner’s plans. The next Eurojackpot drawing will continue as scheduled.
