A Look Back at 2025 in Schuby

The 2025 event took place on September 13. According to the Schleswig-Flensburg District Fire Association, over 250 firefighters participated, drawing more than 500 spectators. In addition to drills by the emergency crews, there was a competition for the youth fire brigades. The event concluded with a joint celebration in Silberstedt.

Highlighting Volunteerism

Visitors to the Amtsfeuerwehrtag get a firsthand look at volunteer work in rural Schleswig-Holstein. Unlike in major cities, there are no professional fire departments here; fire protection and emergency services are entirely volunteer-run. Events like these strengthen these structures and bring them into the public eye.
