Feuerwehrmuseum Nürnberg, Firefighting museum in Germany
The Feuerwehrmuseum Nürnberg is a specialized museum documenting the history of fire protection and firefighting in the city. It displays vehicles, equipment, and documents from different periods at a historic location.
The museum was founded in 2002 to preserve the firefighting history of Nuremberg and make it accessible to the public. The collection includes objects that show how fire prevention and firefighting evolved from the 19th century to today.
The museum shows how the city fought fires and protected itself from this danger over time. The exhibits tell the story of the people who took on this profession across the centuries.
The museum is located at a central place and is easy to reach if you check the opening times. Visitors should allow enough time to walk through all exhibition areas and see the vehicle collection thoroughly.
The museum displays rare firefighting vehicles that are hardly preserved anywhere else in Germany. These vehicles come from different decades and provide insight into the technical development of fire protection equipment.
