News Article: No Major Fire at Friedrich-Loeffler-Institute on August 21, 2025
On Thursday, August 21, 2025, there was an incident at the Friedrich-Loeffler-Institute located on Riems Island. Contrary to initial suspicions, it was confirmed that no major fire occurred. Instead, smoke was observed on the roof of an adjacent storage building.
Upon arrival, approximately 50 personnel from the Greifswald Professional Fire Brigade and the volunteer fire departments of Greifswald, Mesekenhagen, and Neuenkirchen sprang into action. The smoke was promptly removed from the building using compressed air fans.
Fortunately, no significant smoke spread beyond the institute's grounds, and there was no danger from stored materials at the scene. The institute's staff moved the stored goods in the affected hall area to safety outdoors as a precautionary measure.
Flames and hotspots were extinguished at the institute, and the roof of the hall was partially removed due to the incident. It is worth noting that the leader or spokesperson of the Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut on August 21, 2025, is not explicitly mentioned in the available sources. Key scientists involved in the institute around that time included Professor Dr. Timm Harder, Privatdozent Dr. Christian Grund, Dr. Anja Globig, and Dr. Anne Günther, who participated in official discussions as representatives shortly before that date.
The Friedrich-Loeffler-Institute, a renowned research facility, continues its vital work in the field of animal health. This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of safety measures and quick response from emergency services in such situations.
