Wynnum Ambulance Station, Heritage ambulance station museum in Wynnum, Australia

Wynnum Ambulance Station is an ambulance museum housed in a two-story red brick building with arched windows located in Queensland. The building contains operational areas and staff quarters, displaying vehicles and medical equipment from different decades.

Built in 1926–27 to a standard two-storey plan with the station below and the superintendent's residence above, the Wynnum station followed a model formalised by 1921. Queensland's first purpose-built ambulance building was actually the 1897 Wharf Street station in Brisbane. Wynnum's station was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 26 March 1999.

The building reflects how the local community came to rely on professional emergency response as the area grew. Visitors can observe the equipment and methods used over time and understand what ambulance work required from its staff.

The former station stands at 33 Tingal Road, Wynnum, in Brisbane's eastern bayside suburbs. Visits are by appointment only, so arrange a time before travelling; the building is also known as the Queensland Ambulance Museum and the QATB Station.

The first purpose-built ambulance station in Queensland went up in Wharf Street, Brisbane, in 1897, not at Wynnum. Its layout set the template: plant and staff rooms below, a superintendent's residence above, and wide bi-fold doors for a horse and sulky to exit straight to the street.
