Fire Museum of Memphis

Description

Occupies an engine house built in 1910. The museum depicts the life of a firefighter and presents vintage equipment dating from the early 1900s. A great outing for the family, the museum offers visitors the chance to slide down a fire pole or sit in a fire engine. In addition, the "Fire Room" uses advanced technology to deliver true-life effects of past fires and disasters. You'll actually feel the heat as you view firefighters tackling huge flames. Even better, a talking horse tells stories of yesteryear firefighting!
