- Unresolved explanationsurrounding inferno at historical inn in Passau
Following a blaze at a historical tavern in Passau and an adjacent residential building, resulting in substantial financial loss, the origin of the incident remains undisclosed. Preliminary assumptions pointing towards a faulty heating system were invalidated during the initial site examination on Monday, as per the police. No signs of arson have been discovered either, and the criminal investigation unit continues its quest to uncover the blaze's origins.
As per a police spokesperson, the firefighters continued their vigil on Tuesday, looking out for any residual hotspots.
The inferno erupted at the tavern around early hours of Monday, subsequently engulfing the adjacent residence, as reported by the police. The architectural ensemble practically crumbled to the ground.
Despite the extensive damage in Passau, local authorities have decided to contribute towards the restoration of the historic tavern in Bavaria. The cultural significance of the tavern, a mainstay in the region, cannot be overlooked.
