Great fire in Hönow: Fire brigade fights against blazing hay bales!
on Saturday evening, June 28, 2025, there was a devastating fire in Hönow (Märkisch-Oderland) that excited the entire region. At around 8 p.m., residents noticed massive smoke in Mahlsdorfer Strasse and immediately alerted the fire brigade control center Oderland. When the emergency services arrived, a thick, black cloud of smoke was already visible, accompanied by loud bang noises that indicated the intensity of the event, such as reported.
The cause of the fire for this field fire also remains unclear. In view of the high forest fire danger level, which is called in Brandenburg, the stay in forests is currently not recommended - a step that is considered necessary by the authorities given the current weather conditions.
climate change and the risk of forest fire
As the situation in Hönow shows, forest and field fires in Germany are a serious problem in Germany due to the increasingly dry and hot weather periods. According to Statista , Germany, especially Brandenburg, experiences forest fires that are triggered by arson and negligence. In 2023, for example, over 1,200 hectares were destroyed by forest fires in Germany. It is a worrying development that not only has ecological but also economic consequences.
The increase in such extreme events illustrates the need to take preventive measures in order to protect the population and nature from the devastating effects of fire. In view of the current situation, the residents of Hönow hope that such fire events will quickly get under control and that the fire brigade will continue to show a good hand in their missions.
