THE FIRE FIGHTERS HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF WINNIPEG INC

WINNIPEG, Manitoba, R3B0Y8 Canada

Mission Statement

To work towards the establishment of a permanent fire museum here in Winnipeg. We see this facility as a learning centre for fire safety and awareness for children and adults. We want to discover and collect materials and artifacts relating to the local fire service. We want to preserve such material and make it accessible to all who wish to study it. We wish to cultivate and encourage public interest in fire service history.

About This Cause

The Fire Fighters Historical Society was formed in 1982, in preparation for the Winnipeg Fire Department’s centenary, by a group of fire fighters intent on collecting and preserving material related to the fire service. Subsequently, the museum was created, utilizing a former working firehall (in service from 1904 to 1990). Located at 56 Maple Street, we offer a glimpse of what fire fighting was like from the 1874 volunteer-era to the present day.
