The London Fire Brigade Museum (temporarily closed to visitors) covers the history of firefighting since 1666 (the date of the Great Fire of London). The Museum holds over 20,000 items—from leather hoses to fine art paintings, charting the people, innovations, and milestones that have shaped firefighting in London and beyond.
