LBFD Museum

The Long Beach Firefighters Museum, located in the historic Old Fire Station 10, showcases an extensive collection of vintage firefighting equipment, vehicles, and tools, some dating back over 100 years. Visitors can explore artifacts from the Long Beach Fire Department, including a 1922 Ahrens Fox fire engine and a 1955 Cadillac ambulance, reflecting the rich history of firefighting in the area.

In addition to its impressive displays, the museum features engaging stories, such as that of Sam the Cat, a stray adopted by firefighters in the 1950s who learned to slide down the fire pole. The museum is staffed primarily by retired firefighters, providing a unique perspective on the history and evolution of firefighting in Long Beach.
