I have moved to this apartment like last month and it is relatively old. All of a sudden I see this development in the bedroom, looks like a mold.
I do proper ventilation 3 times a day for 10 mins each and keep the heater between 2-3, mostly 2.5. the room temperature is around 17-19/20 but humidity remains between 50-65, mostly on the higher range. But it just doesn’t go down no matter what I do. In the night it goes higher as well.
Can someone please advise what can I do immediate to remove this mold and also fix the humidity problem for longer time.

there are many mold remove spray sold in supermarket buy one and spry the place and wipe it
Use Shimmel spray (Sargotan or dm). It contains Chlorine to remove mold.
If it’s new lease immediately notify the landlord with the pictures so you have a paper trace that you didn’t caused the mold.
Then if it comes back in this place you could use that as a laverage on your landlord to professionally fix it or lower the rent until it’s fixed.
Apart form that if you don’t have one, apply/enroll to Mieterverein. It’s super cheap and could be useful especially in the case of old and moldy apartment.
It looks like black mold that was poorly covered with paint. Might be hard to get rid of.
