Groundbreaking Ceremony in Trier

The foundation stone for the main fire station in Trier was laid on Monday 10 February. The outstanding significance of the construction project was symbolically documented with a time capsule. Filled with the construction plans, the coats of arms of the municipalities involved, current newspaper issues and a 2-euro coin with the Porta Nigra motif, it was moved by crane to the spot where it was set in concrete. The shape of a closable piece of fire hose was chosen to match the construction task. The Main Fire Station in Trier, with Paramedic Services and Integrated Command in the immediate vicinity of the Kaiserthermen World Heritage Site is due to open by 2027.
