District – As in all of Bavaria, a siren test alarm will also take place in the district on Thursday, May 12, at 11 a.m.
In the event of a fire or other emergencies, three continuous tones of twelve seconds each are used to alert the emergency services of the fire brigade.
This is clearly to be distinguished from the one-minute howling tone that sounds when, on the occasion of serious dangers to public safety, attention is drawn to the fact that the population should pay attention to radio announcements.
