At the entrance of the Valle Aurina, at 870 meter above the sea level, is located the new golden landmark of the municipality of Campo Tures. The building position in the site fulfills all the needs that a fire station should have: a big training space in front of the hall, enough parking and the possibility of an future extension of the building.
Fire Station
Designed by Italian studio Pedevilla Architekten, Campo Tures’ new fire station features an evident golden yellow plaster, rough-squirted on the facade.

The compact design is related – in size and proportion – to the small and fractional residential area in the north and to the large halls of the southern industrial area. Protected areas, separated from the vehicle entrance area, are defined through cuts in the volume of the building. The aspect is uniform and compact. The bearing structure is made of reinforced concrete and the interior finishes are made of drywall installation, so the building is very flexible for different uses.
Campo Tures is known as an energy saving municipality and for this reason invests on sustainable politics for environment and climate. Therefore also the fire station has to be a high level energy building; that’s why the facades are isolated before being covered with a gritty plaster. The entrance gates, the doors and windows are disguised with colored metal sheet. The floors of the operating area are grippy, impact-proof and washable, while the floors of the lounge area in the second floor are made of wood.
