Salzburg City Fire at 1818

200 years ago, numerous buildings burned down in the part of Salzburg situated on the right bank of the Salzach River. The cause was fat which on 30 April 1818 overheated on a kitchen stove in the building complex of the Holy Trinity Church. The fire spread rapidly, fanned by wind and aridity. Fueled by windy and dry conditions, it consumed the shingled roof tops and moved relentlessly into the right side of the historical district. The flames enveloped the houses along the left side of the Linzergasse. Other buildings in the direction of Schloss Mirabell also caught fire. I was responsible for digital matte painting, physical simulations, lighting and the overall look. #FilmandTV
