Car burns in Frauenfeld: Fast fire brigade prevents anything worse from happening!
On Wednesday, November 26, 2025, the Frauenfeld fire department in Switzerland was called to a fire-injured vehicle. According to Fireworld, the fire was noticed shortly before 8 a.m. in an underground parking lot when a 45-year-old man drove his car, which had caught fire in the engine compartment, into an outdoor parking space on Speicherstrasse. The vehicle owner suffered minor injuries.
The fire department arrived quickly on site and was able to quickly bring the fire under control. The material damage caused is estimated at several thousand francs. A technical defect is suspected as a possible cause of the fire.
Fire in the city center
Another vehicle-related fire occurred Friday afternoon near Frauenfeld train station. A parked car was completely on fire here, which brought the Thurgau Cantonal Emergency Call Center to the scene. The reports were received shortly after 2:30 p.m., whereupon the fire department quickly rushed to help again. As [imTicker](https://imticker.ch/frauenfeld-tg-auto-faengt-feuer-beim-bahnhof-grosser-sach Schaden/) reports, the fire was controlled, but the affected vehicle was completely destroyed. The heat also caused significant damage to several neighboring vehicles.
The total damage from this fire disaster amounts to tens of thousands of francs. Here too, a technical defect is suspected to be the main cause, and the police found no signs of arson. The investigation into the exact cause of the fire is ongoing.
Fire protection and technical defects
The recent incidents in Frauenfeld shed light on the importance of fire protection and the risks associated with technical defects. According to FeuerTrutz, there is a lack of comprehensive and uniform fire statistics for Germany and partly also for other countries such as Switzerland, which makes it difficult to analyze and improve fire protection. Technical defects are a common cause of fires in vehicles and require regular maintenance and appropriate safety measures to minimize the risk of fire incidents.
In summary, the recent events in Frauenfeld both illustrate the role of the fire department in fighting fires and point to the need for improved fire safety education to avoid such incidents in the future.
