Safari reloads current page instead of loading new website

Hi,

since I updated to Mojave, Safari sometimes keeps on reloading the current page instead of loading the typed-in. I have to type it in several times to load a new website.

I made a video so you can see what I mean but I can't attach it here, so I made some screenshots.

Anyone knows a solution to this?

1. Screenshot: Current website is apple.com. I'm typing in "google.at".

2. Screenshot: I already pressed return and Safari starts loading "google.at".

3. Screenshot: Just during the loading process, as seen by the blue loading bar, Safari changes "google.at" to "apple.com" and reloads the current page.

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014), macOS Mojave (10.14)
