This museum is awesome, and the volunteer fire fighters who created it and manage it are a treasure themselves. If you have any interest is firefighting, history or trucks this shouldn't be missed. Kids of all ages will be delighted!

We were peeking in the windows when one of the volunteers showed up and asked if we would like to go inside. He opened up the building and there were 3 totally refurbished old fire trucks with quite a bit of old fire gear. One of the firetrucks is pulled by horses. Wonderful display and they all work. There is a 9/11 memorial on the outside. Truly terrific place to visit

Great place to share some nostalgia with your kids....ancient firetruck on display with wonderful docents to tell you fire engine and fire fighting stories!

El Departamento de Bomberos de Jamestown tiene anexo un pequeño "museo" donde se puede apreciar un carro de Bomberos antiguo en excelente estado, así como fotos y otros objetos. Es muy interesante!!!
