This museum, associated with the Fire Hall No. 1 of Brandon Fire and Emergency Services on Nineteenth Street North in Brandon, was established in 2010. Its collections include a restored 1929 Bickle fire truck, photographs, scrapbooks, equipment, and a tablet listing the names of firefighters killed during the First World War. A Coronation Bell was donated to the City of Brandon Fire Department in 1902. The bell was removed from the original fire hall in 1911 and placed in the Central Fire Hall.
