Major fire in Stade-Haddorf: 120 firefighters on duty!
CITY OF STADE (GERMANY): A major fire broke out in Stade-Haddorf in the early evening hours of February 15, 2025, when the fire department and police were alerted to a fire in an approximately 400 square meter warehouse at around 6:45 p.m. This hall served as a storage area for several trailers, large quantities of firewood and bales of hay and straw. When the first firefighters arrived at the scene, the building was already engulfed in flames fireworld.at reported.
The quick intervention of around 120 firefighters from Stade and the surrounding towns of Wiepenkathen, Hammah, Mittelsdorf and Estorf prevented anything worse from happening. Although the courageous effort prevented the hall and its contents from completely burning out, extinguishing some of the embers in the hay and straw bales proved to be extremely difficult. The defect required the use of an excavator to pull apart and remove the materials. Some of the firewood was dumped in an adjacent field, which made extinguishing work easier suederelbe24.de informed.

The police estimate the material damage caused at around 40,000 euros. Initial investigations into the cause of the fire were immediately started on site. The Stade police ask witnesses who have made suspicious observations to call 04141-102215. The rapid events underline the extraordinary efforts of the emergency services who prevented something worse from happening and protected their home community.
