While it's the last of all options to consider, it seems legal to cross the line when an emergency vehicle approaches from behind, but only as far as absolutely necessary (e.g move in front of another lane instead of just crossing the intersection), as this news report suggests.

The relevant law (Article 16) suggests that "Wenn es zur sofortigen Freigabe der Fahrbahn unerlässlich ist, müssen die Fahrzeugführer mit der gebotenen Vorsicht auf das Trottoir ausweichen" (ToIf it is necessary, in order to immediately free the lane, the drivers must, with the recommended caution, movedraw onto the sidewalk). So this is the preferred solution, if possible.

When you get a ticket from e.g. an automatic red-light camera, you can object and usually get the fine revoked. The emergency vehicle will likely be visible in the image and/or also be flashed for crossing the red light.
