Just a few moments earlier, a sauna in the basement of a youth sports hotel caught fire. The fire was immediately detected by the 71-year-old hotel operator via the in-house fire alarm system, which also immediately triggered the house alarm. "The hotel operator and two of his guests immediately began an initial extinguishing attack with a hand-held fire extinguisher," according to the Hermagor district fire brigade command.
Guests have to be evacuated
The fire departments were also notified immediately. In the meantime, all guests and employees have also left the building. The 390 people were accommodated in coaches and in a sports hall during the firefighting operation. "Five people were taken to Villach Regional Hospital by the Red Cross on site for further examination due to health complaints," according to the Carinthia Regional Police Directorate.

Cause of the fire was clarified

The fire started in the area of an electrically operated sauna heater, although the amount of damage is not yet known.
