CANADIAN FIRE FIGHTERS MUSEUM

about

The Canadian Fire Fighters Museum first opened its doors in 1984.  Since then the Museum has evolved into a national centre for documentation, preservation, education, and celebration of Canadian firefighting heritage and safety awareness.  The Museum has a collection of artifacts that tell the story of the vital role that firefighters have played in the lives of communities across Canada. The Museum strives to represent all Canadian firefighters: professional or volunteer, industrial, military, wildland, and airport.

The collection encompasses equipment of every kind, from all eras and all parts of Canada: antique fire helmets, an amazing array of fire hydrants, fire-related signage, safety equipment, toys, and of course our vintage fire trucks.

The Museum is rebuilding in its new and larger location at 206A Furnace St in Cobourg, targeting an official opening in Spring, 2026.

You can also help support the museum’s work by purchasing a membership here.
