The Fire Museum of Texas is located in the former Central Fire Station, in Beaumont, Texas. The building was constructed in 1927 and is a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark. The museum houses interactive fire safety exhibits with a collection of antique fire equipment dating back to 1856. The museum also has a two-story playhouse, designed to help children learn fire safety. Featured prominently in front of the museum building is "the world's largest working fire hydrant", which measures 24 feet tall. The museum also features the State of Texas Firefighter Memorial, a 9-11 memorial, and a firefighter commemorative walkway.
