A fire in a building on Mount Kellstein at an altitude of 1.8 km in the Bavarian Alps broke out on the night of October 24. Extinguishing the fire continued until Saturday morning. He caused serious damage to the building, erected in the late 1930s and survived World War II. After it, the object with an observation deck began to be used as a mountain hotel, a restaurant, not forgetting about its past. The site offers a unique view, but is also positioned as a reminder-warning "about the abyss of the inhumane Nazi dictatorship." The damaged building is now closed indefinitely. The tourist attraction plans to try to restore.

According to Bild, the version of arson is being considered. Detained near the scene of the incident, a German citizen is 33 years old. He lives in the capital of Germany. According to some reports, he is a native of this city, according to others - Bavaria. Due to inadequate behavior, questions have arisen about his mental state. The presence of relevant problems was confirmed by the specialist who prepared the preliminary report. It was decided to temporarily place the man in a special institution. The involvement of this person in the incident is checked, simultaneously finding out his possible motives and circumstances of the fire.
