According to fire department reports, three houses in Vorderbrühl, a district of Mödling, have been temporarily evacuated for safety reasons after a rockfall.
Presumably due to a thunderstorm, several large rocks became dislodged on the steep terrain on Monday and fell into gardens. The roof of a garden shed was damaged in the process. After an inspection by the state geologist on Tuesday, an official closure was issued. A more detailed examination is planned.
