Very beautiful museum. All the retired firefighters are friendly, as well as the ones on duty.

Once the largest fire station west of the Mississippi. 5 fire poles to take the staff from the second floor dormitory to the fire trucks on the first floor. The first floor is filled with fire trucks and their equipment. The model T fire truck was great. Massive ladder trucks of different ages. Horse fire trucks and a steampowered one is also on display. Dozens of models of other fire engines and fire stations. See the kitchen and Captains office on the first floor as well. Up the elevator or stairs to the second floor to see the dormitory which is filled with fire hats from around the world. Large childrens play area and associated children's toys fill the old locker room. Free to enter and parking on the street is free as well. Large bronze statue saluting the fallen fire fire fighter as well as the names of all Los Angeles firefighters who died due to fighting fires.

Fun historical site with a somber reminder of those who lost their lives in service to their community. There are many amazing historical items to see here, including old fire trucks, equipment, and poles. If you have a child who's interest in becoming a fire fighter, being them here.

I took my young son, who loves everything firefighter/fire truck related. We had a great time exploring the museum. The guys (volunteers?) at the museum had some great stories.
