A fire broke out in a hotel in the Carinthian municipality of Hermagor-Pressegger See on Wednesday evening. Eleven fire brigades with a total of 150 men were deployed to extinguish the fire.
Around two in the morning, sirens blared in the Hermagor district. A fire broke out in a storage room next to a hotel in Tröpolach. Eleven fire brigades with a total of 150 men and 16 vehicles rushed to the large-scale operation. “There had been 22 people in the hotel. They were warned early by the smoke detectors and were able to get themselves to safety,” said Thomas Astner, head of operations for the Tröpoloch volunteer fire brigade.
Guests were cared for in the armory
Fortunately, the rapid intervention of the fire brigade prevented the spread of the spread to the hotel grounds and the restaurant. “The holidaymakers and relatives of the accommodation were first received in the armory and then accommodated in another hotel,” the emergency services said.
The cause of the fire is still unclear, as is the extent of the damage. “Investigations into the cause will follow in the coming days,” said the police. Fortunately no one was injured.
