Description
Fort Worth's oldest fire station is a charming and appropriate place for an exhibit celebrating the city's history. This station housed active firefighters from 1907-1980. In 1984, it reopened for the Texas Sesquicentennial with a new collection of memorabilia entitled "150 Years of Fort Worth." Photographs, assorted historical documents, paintings, posters and other artifacts from the late 1800s to the 1990s chronicle the city's progress, from military outpost to cattle market to thriving modern city. Groups may schedule private tours two weeks in advance. Admission is free.
