Description
The Firefighters Museum is devoted to Calgary's fire-fighting history. The museum is managed by retired firefighters, offering a personal glimpse into the lives of past firefighters with over three thousand fascinating artifacts. Perfect for school trips and family outings, the museum houses artifacts such as thirteen fire trucks, including three classics that were purchased by the City of Calgary in 1929. These trucks are in impeccable shape, with gleaming brass and silver-plated fire nozzles. Over four hundred restored photographs, including the only known photo of the Calgary riot of 1917, are also on exhibit. The museum is located in the City's southeast section.
