Tampere Voluntary Fire Brigade Building, Art Nouveau fire station in Amuri, Finland
The Tampere Voluntary Fire Brigade Building stands at Pirkankatu 8, featuring red brick construction with granite details and a prominent tower.
Architect Heikki Tiitola designed this fire station in 1910, during a period when Tampere was expanding its emergency response capabilities.
The building represents early 20th-century Finnish municipal architecture and the development of organized fire protection in urban centers.
The structure maintains its original function as a fire station while simultaneously preserving historical architectural elements from the 1910s.
The building combines operational firefighting facilities with architectural elements that reflect the transition from horse-drawn to motorized equipment.
