Ring the Alarm! The Houston Fire Museum is Finally Reopening!

10/3/24 - By Elizabeth R

Firefighting enthusiasts of all ages will be happy to know that the Houston Fire Museum is finally celebrating its grand reopening on October 12th, 2024 after a long four years of closure. Built in 1899, Historic Station No. 7 was the first fire station built and paid for by the City of Houston, and is the oldest Houston fire station still standing.

The recent $5.7M building preservation project restored the station to its original beauty with added modern conveniences, including an all-new children's playroom. New features include a designated private room for events, including kid's birthday parties, and an outdoor courtyard.

Hours after October 12th will be Tuesday through Saturday, 10 am to 4 pm. Admission will not be charged until early 2025 when all the exhibits are slated to be moved back to the museum. Once fully open, admission will be $8 for adults and $5 for children.
