About Tampa Fire Fighters Museum

The museum occupies a century-old downtown firehouse and presents Tampa's firefighting heritage through antique fire engines, vintage equipment, and personal stories from past generations of firefighters. The building also hosts events and private gatherings. Visitors should contact the museum in advance to arrange a visit, since public hours are limited. A children's interactive area called the Downtown Safety District is also on site.
