The Firehouse Museum
Founded in 1962, the Firehouse Museum occupies the former home of San Diego Fire Station No. 6, which now resides in Otay Mesa. The museum’s brick-and-mortar building in Little Italy features firefighting equipment and apparatus dating back to the late 1800s. La Jolla's first fire engine, a horse drawn steamer and piece of steel from the World Trade Center are some of the highlighted pieces. Firefighting's rich tradition and heritage live on in the San Diego Firehouse Museum

Based on my research, the museum offers visitors an exciting glimpse into the history of firefighting in San Diego. The museum showcases vintage fire equipment, memorabilia, and educational exhibits that highlight the evolution of firefighting techniques and the brave individuals who served in this field. It's a great spot for anyone interested in history, first responders, or firefighting gear.
