Calumet Fire Station, Fire station in Calumet Historic District, United States
The Calumet Fire Station stands as a two-story red sandstone building with three fire engine entrances and a bell tower on 6th Street.
Built in 1898 for $20,000, the fire station served the copper mining town of Red Jacket, now known as Calumet, during its industrial peak.
The station featured quarters for firefighters on the second floor, including a bunk room, locker room, and a social hall for community gatherings.
The building now functions as the Upper Peninsula Fire Fighters Memorial Museum, preserving the history of firefighting in Michigan's copper country.
The Richardsonian Romanesque structure features stepped gables, wooden doors, and an original design that accommodated both fire engines and horses.
