Reviews of Firefighters’ Museum (Museum)

RUSSELL HENNINGER SR

Wow what can I say about this large museum, but fantastic. They have so many artifacts that are well persevered and kept to their natural state as if they were brand new. Small fee (Five Canadian) with what they have should be chartered more (shhhhhh). Staff are super friendly and courteous and helpful.

If I could have caught my sons reaction when we walked in, the moment he went "Fire" it would have been but a glimpse of the excitement he felt crossing the threshold. Filed to the brim with old, restored fire engines, equipment, brotherhood. It gives a glimpse into the history of Yarmouth itself through its turmoil, and loss. It's truely a think of beauty to behold

Super museum. A lot of old firecars and pumps. Great condition of it. We really enjoined seeing it.

A wonderful trip back in time. We have all seen these in the old movies, now here is a chance to see them in person and 'imagine'. Yes, imagine how they ever put out any large fires with these tiny pieces of apparatus. Thanks to the ingenuity of men and women over the years, things have evolved. Thanks to those who have preserved this piece of history for us.

As a ex fire chief my father loved this place.My family also enjoyed it.Kid friendly but alot of stuff isn't hands on.

Completely empty when we arrived. The woman at the desk was no where to be found when we got there, after signing in she remained on the phone/talking to a friend who came in. As far as the museum goes it would have been better if it were more interactive.

Very clean, well set up and very educational. Very small museum, glad admission was offered free as paying would have been disappointing.

Pretty great museum. Tons of old vehicles and artifacts. Only thing is you can't touch anything. I was hoping to be able to climb into one of the vehicles to see what they look like. Very cheap entry as well. It was $8 for two of us.

Wonderful artifacts. Lots to see and a great collection. Only thing that could be approved would be a guided tour. I think that always makes a museum more enjoyable

(Translated) Lots of vehicles and artifacts, but information is sometimes limited to year of manufacture and name of donor. I wish they were in chronological order. There are applications that can be downloaded or on rental tablets that allow you to take a self-guided tour while keeping a minimalist display. (Original) Beaucoup de véhicules et d'artefacts, mais les informations se limitent parfois à l'année de fabrication et au nom du donateur. J'aurais aimé qu'ils soit en ordre chronologique. Il existe des application qu'on peut télécharger ou sur des tablettes en location qui permettent d'effectuer une visite auto-guidée tout en gardant un affichage minimaliste.
