The all -clear in Wiesbaden: Refrigeration after the major fire.

In the night of June 26, 2025, a major fire occurred in Wiesbaden that put both the fire brigade and residents on alert. At 02:02 a.m., a warning message to the population was sent via common warning apps because a large bulky waste pile in Mainz-Amöneburg had risen in flames. The central control center Wiesbaden finally gave the all -clear at 02:51 a.m. after the intensive smoke development and the associated odor nuisance for the entire state of Hesse, especially in Wiesbaden, were dominated. This information was, among others, from News.de provided.

The Wiesbaden fire brigade was quickly on site and saw itself confronted with an already far advanced fire. The bulky waste, which had the dimensions of 30 by 20 meters and was up to 15 meters high, ensured massive smoke development. In order to prevent the spread of fire to neighboring buildings and vehicles, a bar position was built up. This measure required extensive extinguishing measures, which turned out to be particularly time -consuming due to the size and density of the fire goods. According to wiesbaden.de used the fire brigade and excavator to remove the burning material in a layer can.

emergency services and coordination

A total of around 60 emergency services from the professional fire brigade and several voluntary fire departments were deployed. The voluntary fire brigades from Biebrich, Erbenheim, Kastel, Kashheim, Frauenstein, Igstadter, Sonnenberg and Breckenheim supported the professional forces. Nine employees of the waste disposal company, which was responsible for bulky waste, were also on site and helped with heavy equipment. Two of them were spotted with slight symptoms of flue gasinhalation, but rejected hospital transport, which shows that the health situation of the emergency services was largely stable.

The coordination of the rescue measures was the responsibility of the emergency services management, while a logistics group took care of the supply of firefighters with drinks and meals. In view of the challenges in fire fighting, the extinguishing work could take several hours, which kept the situation tense.
