On this day we honor all of the Presidents of our great country. If it weren’t for them, our country would not be what it is today!

We hope you have a wonderful Valentine’s Day celebrating with the ones you love!

Formerly known as Fire Station #1, the San Antonio Fire Museum served as San Antonio's working Central Fire Headquarters for more than seven decades. When some local firefighters decided to open a museum paying homage to the men and women who came before them, however, they made over the fire department for their purposes. In May of 2013, the firefighter founders debuted the museum to the people of San Antonio.

You can still explore it today. In the years since it opened, the San Antonio Fire Museum has acquired even more vintage fire trucks than it originally housed, each painstakingly restored by the volunteer staff. The museum also plays host to various exhibits that chronicle the rise of the local fire department. Explore the antique documents and photos to learn a little more about the history of San Antonio's firefighting heroes.
