The Fire Tower, Firefighting museum in Bucharest, Romania.

The Fire Tower stands 42 meters tall, featuring multiple exhibition levels displaying firefighting equipment and historical artifacts from different periods.

Built in 1890 under architect George Mandrea's direction, this structure served as an observation point for fire detection until taller buildings emerged in 1935.

The museum presents the evolution of Romanian firefighting through exhibits of tools, vehicles, and protective gear used throughout different time periods.

Located between Obor and Calea Moșilor, the museum opens daily except Mondays, offering guided tours in Romanian and English for visitors.

The building combines Neo-Romanian architectural elements with a circular observation platform that provides views across central Bucharest.
