The Fire Museum contains Midland's first two fire trucks and other early fire fighting equipment. Photographs line the walls, and an original collection of early fire markers is on exhibit. School children are given special tours during Fire Protection Week. The museum is an excellent education tool for learning about the early history of fire fighting, and offers visitors a glimpse back into the early days of Midland.
