The cantonal police of Bern confirmed at the Keystone-SDA agency the fire of the old town of Bern. According to a local SDA Keystone reporter, the Postgasse fire broke out around 7 pm.

Dozens of firefighters fought the fire. These have apparently been able to contain the fire, as reported by the Keystone reporter SDA. A spread to other houses could obviously have been avoided. Shortly before 8 pm, there was almost no more flames.

At the beginning, we did not know anything about the wounded. However, two ambulances were on site.

The old city was shrouded in smoke. The area has been temporarily closed over a large area. Later, the bus lines 12 and 30 were still restricted, the road between the lower lane and the Nydegg bridge was closed. Nothing has yet been announced about the cause of the fire.
