Report


The Münchweiler, Gonbach, and Winnweiler fire departments were dispatched to a chimney fire in Münchweiler. Sparks were visible coming from the chimney at the scene. A crew wearing breathing apparatus immediately entered the building.

The chimney was swept from the top using chimney sweep tools, while a second team wearing breathing apparatus collected the falling embers at the bottom of the chimney and carried them outside. Once the chimney was clear again, the scene was handed over to the local chimney sweep, and the fire department’s operation was concluded.
