Description

Built by the Seacoast Fireman’s Union, this building contains a 19th century fire pumper, a collection of antique fire alarms, a Whiting Light (precursor to today’s emergency flashing lights), photographs, and other fire fighting equipment.

Recently two Eagle Scout projects were completed at the museum. Eagle Scout candidate Chris Larivee from Boy Scout Troop 177, with the help of community volunteers, has completely renovated the Fire Museum. The walls and floor were repainted, the cases repaired and repainted, and all the exhibits were cleaned and reinstalled with new information labels. A new feature is a Children’s corner where visitors may try on coats and hats and ring the fire bell.
