Fire breaks out Bad Tölz in Stadtklinik - 50 evacuated, no injuries!

On Wednesday morning, June 11, 2025, a fire broke out in the city clinic in Bad Tölz that caused many people to excitement. At around 10.30 a.m. the fire in the attic of a part of a building was noticed. Fortunately, there were no injuries, and around 50 people, including patients and employees, had to leave the building temporarily, but were soon able to return, such as the Süddeutsche Zeitung reported.

Several fire brigades from the surrounding area were deployed, with around 80 firefighters and around 40 rescue workers quickly to the site. These pulled all the stops to quickly control the fire. The damage caused by the fire is estimated on a low five-digit euro amount. The first measures were taken by the Bad Tölz police inspection, while the criminal service of the Weilheim criminal police inspection took over the cause of the fire.

cause of fire in the focus

At the moment, the exact cause of the fire is still unclear. The criminal police have already initiated investigations, and the Munich II public prosecutor's office leads the processing to find out more about the possible trigger. Such incidents are rare, but they still throw a light on the security situation in medical institutions. According to the police there is a worrying statistics in Germany: 2023 117 BRANGEN registered in which 5 people died and 149 were injured.

The development in old people's and nursing homes is particularly alarming, where there were 126 fires with 22 deaths and 181 injuries, which represents a doubling compared to 2021. The figures come from the Federal Association of Technical Brand Protection e.V. (BVFA), which points out that a lack of investment technology measures, such as missing sprinklers, can have a significant impact on the number of victims. It is all the more important that facilities such as the hospital in Bad Tölz adhere to the security standards.

security measures and prevention

In view of these statistics, it is crucial that hospitals and care facilities regularly check their security precautions and, if necessary, improve. The BVFA and the Association for the Promotion of German Brand Protection (VfDB) offer comprehensive information and leaflets for the selection of fire protection measures. These are available online free of charge and can help minimize the fire risk.

The rapid number of fires in social institutions shows that there is a need for action here. As low as the damage in Bad Tölz is assessed, the incidents are a reminder to everyone, how important a well thought -out fire protection is. This is the only way to ensure that such fires can be better prevented in the future or at least reduced the effects. Therefore, it remains to be seen which knowledge the ongoing investigations will bring and what measures will be taken in the future to ensure the safety of both patients and employees. Further information about the current fire risks and trends also provides the website of the BVFA, which is continuously updated .
