On Wednesday evening, the firefighters of the Rußbach and Abentau volunteer fire departments were called upon.
“The new pump house of the Dachstein West ski area, which should have been presented on Saturday at the open day, was fully engulfed in flames,” reports local fire brigade commander Bernd Schnitzhofer, who moved out with 22 of his comrades; 44 emergency services from the neighboring town provided additional support. Around 9:30 p.m., the fire could be extinguished. “With the new rescue vehicle, which we only received three months ago, we were able to bring the fire under control quickly,” says Schnitzhofer. Fire watch was kept on Thursday night. The cause of the fire is still unclear at this time.
