House on the Darß burns - Ten residents evacuated - Christmas Day fire leaves Polish tenant homeless in Wieck apartment blaze
A fire broke out in an apartment building in Wieck on the Darß peninsula on December 26, 2025. The blaze forced ten people to evacuate their homes in the late afternoon. No injuries were reported, but the cause remains under investigation.
The fire started at around 4:50 PM in the apartment of a 25-year-old Polish tenant. He was not at home when the flames began. Authorities have not identified anyone as responsible, though they suspect negligent arson may have played a role.
Firefighters arrived quickly to tackle the blaze. Once the fire was under control, most residents were allowed back inside. However, the tenant’s apartment was left uninhabitable. Police are continuing their investigation to determine the exact cause of the fire.
The incident disrupted the second day of Christmas for those living in the building. While no one was hurt, the tenant now faces the loss of his home. Authorities have yet to confirm what sparked the fire.
