Welcome to The Fire Museum.  Located in the heart of the Cheney National Historic District, The Fire Museum is housed in a retired 1901 fire station with a unique atmosphere that saw the transition from hand drawn to horse drawn, then to motorized apparatus.  In addition to a working Gamewell Fire Alarm System, our collection includes hundreds of fine examples of early American craftsmanship related to firefighting such as glassware, lighting, leather making, photography, textiles and paintings.

Opening Day For The 2012 Season Will Be April 14th At 12:00pm.

This Years Featured Exhibit Will Be The Hartford Hospital Fire Of 1961.
