A fire broke out this evening in the center of Durbuy, and more precisely at the back of the “Sanglier des Ardennes” hotel-restaurant. Heavy smoke is visible above the Wagyu restaurant. “Everyone is safe“, publishes Marc Coucke, the owner of the establishment, on his Instagram account.
“We were contacted early in the evening about a cooking fire”explains Stéphane Thiry, commander of the Luxembourg relief zone. “On arrival, the firefighters noticed that it did not come from the kitchen but from a wood-burning system which had caused a fire to the roof,” he continues.
There were no injuries. Two people were monitored for minor smoke intoxication, but nothing serious. During the evening, the situation was under control and all danger was averted.
At 8:45 p.m., the fire was still in progress, according to our RTBF colleague currently on site and who sent us these photos, and who tells us that the fire is under control, but not under control.
