Museum of Fire

The Museum of Fire displays a collection of historic firefighting vehicles, equipment, uniforms, and memorabilia spanning over 150 years of Australian fire service history.

The institution opened its doors in 1980 to preserve and showcase the legacy of New South Wales firefighting services and their contributions to public safety.

The museum collection includes indigenous fire management tools and documents the evolution of firefighting methods from Aboriginal practices to modern techniques.

Located near the Penrith train station, the museum provides guided tours, educational programs for school groups, and interactive demonstrations of firefighting equipment.

The museum maintains the largest collection of restored firefighting vehicles in the Southern Hemisphere, including rare steam-powered fire engines from the 1800s.
