Dedicated to the firemen of the Los Angeles Fire
Department-past, present, and future-who, by their courage
and faithful devotion to duty, have protected the lives and
property of the citizens of Los Angeles from the ravages of
fire since 1871. This was the first building constructed as
a fire station in Los Angeles. Built in 1884, it served as a
firehouse until 1897. After this it was used for various
purposes until restored in 1960 and opened as a museum of
fire-fighting equipment of the late 19th century.
