Great fire in Kattenesch: Fire brigade fights for your neighborhood!

Kattenesch, Deutschland - this day, July 1, 2025, the Bremen fire brigade moved out to be in a dangerous commitment in Kattenesch. A fire had caused considerable damage in three row houses. According to the information from News.de broke out the fire shortly before 1 p.m. The emergency services immediately faced a big challenge.

Although there were no injuries, some residents of the affected area had to be spotted by the emergency services. The Bremen fire brigade had previously been strongly challenged because a major fire in Hemelingen raged in Hemelingen and numerous smaller missions took place. Here, too, the units already in use had to be regrouped quickly to combat the new fire in Kattenesch.

Efficient fire fighting with modern technology

The extinguishing measures were extremely complicated because the fire had eaten deep into the roof beams and false ceilings. Two turntable ladders and several pipes were used. Respiratory protection teams entered the burning buildings, although the first extinguishing succession was initially not recognizable. To control the Situation, a new Cobra extinguishing system was used, which works with a water jet pressure of 200 bar and releases about 40 liters of water per minute. This technique allows all known building materials to penetrate in the cold cutting process, which supported the extinguishing campaign significantly, as the FF Neustadt explained.

not at around 4:30 p.m., after an intensive fire fighting, the first emergency services could be released from the operation. Among the participating units were not only the professional fire brigade, but also voluntary fire departments from Bremen-Neustadt, Huchting, Schönebeck and electricity.

Fire brigade training and statistics in focus

Today the Bremen fire brigade was strongly challenged, with almost 40 missions until 6:45 p.m., distributed over the deletion and assistance service. There were repeated fires and operations by fire protection devices that were alerted. The guards of the professional fire brigade have meanwhile been occupied by the volunteer fire brigades, while the situation in Kattenesch was brought under control.

In view of the steadily increasing number of operations in cities, it is important that the fire brigade has the best possible equipment. According to the current fire statistics report of the CTIF , which has been collecting data in different countries since 1995, the urban fire risks are of the utmost importance. The “100 Cities - 100 Years” project illuminates these developments and receives valuable knowledge that could also be important for the Bremen fire brigade.

With the constant further development of technology and tactics, the Bremen fire brigade does everything possible to protect citizens and to react in the best possible way in an emergency. The further training of the emergency services and the use of innovative solutions remains crucial for effective fire fighting.
