Intro
Are you on fire for horse pumps, firefighting equipment and fire department uniforms from the last two centuries? Then visit the fire department museum in St. Gallen.
Fires were omnipresent in the Middle Ages. But the fear of fire also made people inventive when it came to fighting fires. A fascinating collection of firefighting paraphernalia from various eras awaits you at the DEPOT61 firefighting museum. These include the hand-operated alarm horn, horse-drawn hand-operated fire engines, an extinguishing bomb, the 18th century fire searcher, the Saurer car pump "Helene" vintage 1909 and many unique exhibits.
Opening hours
every saturday from 10 to 17 o'clock
Group tours possible at any time by appointment.
Guided tours
Around our numerous fire department utensils many exciting stories are waiting for you. Do you know what the Rescue Corps was founded for? Or where in the city of St. Gallen the fire searcher was stationed, or when the first fire engine was invented? You can find out more during one of our entertaining guided tours with our active or former firefighters.
Groups
Are you looking for a special experience for your fire department day, class reunion, business outing or club event?
