Enigmatic defligence: Large deployment at Synagogue in Stadtschlaining!

On June 29, 2025, Burgenland, Burgenland, occurred in the fire brigade's major operation due to a suspected risk of explosion. The fire brigade was initially alerted due to a supposed roofing fire fire near the synagogue. On site, however, it turned out that there was no classic fire, but smoke came from a downpipe that pointed to carbon monoxide (CO) in the sewage system. This reported Fireworld .

The fire brigade then had to request the hazardous substance unit of the Pinkafeld fire brigade. Measurement devices showed explosive carbon monoxide concentrations in the sewer network. Around 40 people from adjacent buildings, including a hotel and the historical synagogue, were evacuated in cooperation with the Red Cross and the police. Evacuation measures were necessary after minor deflacements and thus the presumption of a gas release had occurred. Fire brigade dangerous substance expert Martin Ulreich suspected that warm temperatures could have caused an underground cable fire that released the toxic gases. MeinDärzirk supplemented that the heat development may also have increased biodegradable processes in the sewer system.

operational measures and all -clear

The fire brigade initiated extensive ventilation measures in the sewer network and used a special measuring car from Burgenland Energie to localize possible defects in cable and gas pipes. The use of a total of four fire departments with 50 forces and experts from Burgenland Energie, police and the Red Cross was supported. Despite the serious situation, there was no injuries to complain about. The all -clear was carried out by Burgenland Energie at 3:30 p.m., which could keep the lock of the main square and the residents were allowed to return to their houses.

carbon monoxide is a smell and tasteless gas that arises during the combustion of carbon-containing materials and is a great danger in closed rooms. At high concentrations, it can lead to serious health damage or even death. The gas is lighter than air, which makes it particularly dangerous when it builds up in dusty or tight places. Symptoms of co-poisoning can be a headache and dizziness. Firefighting magazine states that special precautions are necessary to protect emergency services from these dangers.
