Therme Erding Evacuated After Kitchen Grease Fire

A staff-extinguished kitchen grease fire led to reopening within an hour.

Overview

  • Therme Erding, which reported a kitchen grease fire Friday, evacuated parts of the complex and closed several areas.
  • Police said 57 people were examined for suspected smoke inhalation, and one person was taken to a hospital as a precaution.
  • About 700 bathers moved to other sections and an outdoor zone while roughly 110 emergency workers handled the response.
  • Staff put out the blaze, and firefighters cleared smoke so regular operations could restart about an hour later.
  • Police cited a suspected technical defect in a fryer as the cause, with a formal assessment still pending.
