Drama in Neuss: Modellbauverein-Hütte went up in flames!

In the early morning hours of August 27, 2025, the Neuss fire brigade was alerted to a fire in the Franz-Kellermann-Weg at 6:36 a.m. It turned out on site that the hut of a model building association was on fire. The emergency services reacted immediately and used a C-pipe to fight fire from outside. A team under respiratory protection went into the building to explore the situation and take further fire measures. According to fireworld.at, the open flames were quickly put down, but embers were found in the intermediate blanket.

The following measures included the deglishment of these embers nests and ventilation measures for removal of smoke. Despite the rapid reaction of the fire brigade, a total loss of the model sports hut was accepted. The post -extinguishing work went into the morning. At around 8:30 a.m., the fire brigade finally released the site to the police, which has now taken over the investigation into the cause of the fire.

Comparison with previous fires

The deployment of the Neuss fire brigade are not uncommon. Just a few years earlier, on May 6, 2019, the fire brigade was also alerted to a room fire in Goethestrasse. In this case, the fire was discovered by an attentive landlord and a smoke detector. In this use, the first emergency services carried out an interior attack and used a turntable ladder to support. Fortunately, there were no people in the apartment, which could prevent a tragedy. However, the exact cause of the fire remained unknown, while the reports of the fire brigade pointed out that the affected road had to be completely blocked for about half an hour.

Fire protection remains of great importance in Germany. According to various statistics, such as those on Feuertrutz.de, there are no comprehensive and uniform fire statistics. However, these statistics could contribute to improving fire protection by providing data, causes of fire, causes of fire as well as injuries and deaths.

The regularity of the updates of these statistics shows the urgency, fires and their causes better. Repeated events, such as the fires in Neuss, illustrate the need for effective fire protection and the sensitization of the population.
