Ceremonial Groundbreaking – New Fire Station in Wasserburg am Inn
08.09.2026
With the symbolic groundbreaking ceremony on September 8, 2026, construction of the new fire station in Wasserburg has officially begun. A modern, future-ready facility for the fire department is being built on the site of the former nursery on Schopperstattweg and is scheduled for completion by autumn 2028.
The new fire station is designed to meet the requirements of modern emergency response, training, and operational exercises. The approximately 3,600-square-meter building will be constructed primarily using timber and will include a vehicle hall, workshops, changing rooms, storage and training rooms, as well as office and common areas.
The main building will be complemented by an auxiliary building featuring a wash hall, technical rooms, and a training tower. In addition to regular emergency operations, the new facility will provide space for training and continuing education as well as for events. In the event of a disaster, the fire station can also serve as an emergency operations center.
The new facility will therefore provide high-performance infrastructure that is designed to meet the fire department’s diverse long-term requirements while creating optimal conditions for emergency response, training, and community use.
