Virginia Fire Museum Inc. Welcome to the Virginia Fire Museum Inc. on Facebook! We are the Commonwealth's largest repository of firefighting history through apparatus and equipment.

Follow us as we grow and evolve into one of the nation's most comprehensive fire museums! The Virginia Fire Museum is dedicated to preserving Virginia's rich fire service history as a 501c3 tax deductible non-profit agency. Our vast collection of apparatus, equipment and photographs help tell the story of city and rural firefighting throughout the Commonwealth. No matter the size of the locality, we strive to give proper and equal representation of their individual history and artifact preservation assistance. We are one of the very few museums that foster and embrace the true operation of apparatus in it's full capacity. This means that if it is an engine / pumper, it flows water at it's rated capacity. Yes, they are parade / show ready but they do have to stay fit for service since anything less would be a disservice. This is what separates us from most museums today, we are not a nursing home but we are a full rehabilitation center. We are always looking for new supporters, volunteers and most of all history that needs a loving home.
