This museum presents a
chronological history of
fire fighting in
Istanbul starting with
the water pumpers (tulumbaci
in
Turkish) of
Ottoman times. All kinds
of fire brigade equipment,
from the first motorized
fire engines to firemen’s
clothing and tools, are
displayed. The museum in its
present building opened in
1992 within the main Fire
Brigade headquarters in
Fatih district, after many
years of collecting and
repairing the objects.
Open daily between
09:00-17:00 except Sundays
