The Museum is operated primarily by retired, as well as present Winnipeg firefighters. The museum is devoted to firefighter heritage. It is normally open every Sunday from 10:00 until about 14:00 so those who plan on visiting just need to phone during those time frames in order to ensure someone is available for a tour.

Collection

The museum is located in a former fire station built in 1904, and contains memorabilia dating back to the beginning of the Winnipeg Fire Brigade in 1882. The collection includes fully operational fire apparatus such as a 1927 American LaFrance and a 1958 Mack truck. Also included are numerous pieces of firefighting equipment, rescue and medical gear, articles and photos of the department in action, and various other artifacts.
