The abnormal evolution of an active region during three solar rotations is studied. The high density of flares during the second and third rotation seems to be caused by the collision of new active centres with existing ones.

The increase of the activity is probably due to the disturbance of the magnetic field which became more complex because of the appearance of new centres near the original one.
