Preserving and Sharing Stories of Hoboken’s Bravest
Created by Bill Bergin and volunteers from the Hoboken Fire Department, the Hoboken Fire Department Museum is open to visitors every weekend between noon and 5 p.m., staffed by the Hoboken Historical Museum. Explore the displays of vintage equipment, photographs and news clippings documenting the fires—large and small—that tested the mettle of generations of Hoboken's firefighters. The building served as a firehouse in the 1880s, and as the meeting room for the "Association of Exempt Firemen." It is now on the National Register of Historic Places.
