Los Angeles County Fire Museum

Amazing place to go with the kids. We loved the tour and seeing the history of historical firetrucks! They are all so kind and welcoming!

This was an amazing experience me and my dad loved binge watching Emergency! and I lost my dad in 2017 due to a heart attack and when I found out there was a museum that had the real Engine 51 and Squad 51 I knew he would’ve taken me but 7 years later I was able to go see the actual Engine 51 and Squad 51 I wish he would’ve been there with me but I know he was with me in spirit and that’s why I felt so welcomed

OMG OMG OMG….freaking awesome. If you are looking at this you know why!! Isn’t this why we all went thru EMT training??!! YOU MUST COME AND VISIT!! The tour guides are awesome!!

Lots of history packed in one place was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and passionate staff were very helpful and informative. Great place for fire history and television history buffs.

This was a great experience! I went for the vehicles from Emergency! Since ive been a fan since it originally aired, but there were othergreat exhibits related to fire as well. The docents were awesome, helpful and very knowledgeable and fan-friendly!

This is the most wonderful hidden gem of Southern California. Only $5 to get in, free for military or first responders. The docents are retired firefighters who are knowledgeable and take their time to explain every piece of machinery. If you love the show Emergency! you will enjoy the museum. I will be coming back.

This was probably the best Fire Museum in the country, just because it is the home of Engine & Squad 51. The staff is a bunch of retired LA firefighters. There is so much knowledge there and so many great stories. I travelled across country just to take part in the 50th anniversary of the TV show Emergency. I had the best time there.

So much fun! We came here mainly to see the engine and squad from the old show Emergency! but there is so much more. The docents are retired fire captains and battalion commanders with an absolute wealth of information and stories about all of the vehicles on display. This is a must see place!!

If you want delight yourself with a little firefighters history, this place is a must. They have classic fire engines fill with history and fame. Also a hydrant from the twins towers .

I really enjoyed it. Taking a tour with ex firefighter is very interesting.

Amazing place to go. The highlight of the visit was a retired firefighter who accompanied us and told us about each fire engine that was there. Many retirees volunteer their time to do these tours and it was awesome. Children would love it here as well. The tv show Emergency fire truck is here also.

You don't have to be a fireman to enjoy this great little museum, especially the displays from the TV show "Emergency". It's only $5.00 to enter. The guides are very informative. They are retired firemen. Plenty of free parking in the back. They have small gift shop also.

My husband watches the show Emergency with our son that has autism. They have been planning to go for some time now but they wanted to stop at the museum and see the trucks and get some gifts. The museum wasn't open but my husband called the fre dept. They said come on over! They showed us around and were great with the kids. They also had a few things we could purchase but bring cash! Loved what you guys did for them! They are so happy they could stop and see it all. Thank you for taking the time for a tour!

So, as super huge museum buffs (we CAN'T pass up a good museum!), as people who love to learn all about how stuff works, and as watchers of the TV show Emergency!, we absolutely had to stop by, and I'm so glad we did!

This museum has a lot of fascinating history packed into a compact space. You can get right up close to the exhibits, which lets you see all kinds of interesting detail, and there's everything from vehicles to small tools.

I would especially like to thank our docent, who was so friendly and not only gave us a wonderfully informative tour and taught us a ton about the history of both firefighting equipment and the fire service as a whole, but also answered all my questions about just how a fire engine actually works and what all those knobs, dials, and compartments are for. I'm very grateful, sir - you made this nerd's day! I would also like to give a shoutout to the ladies at the desk for being super friendly and welcoming. You're all seriously awesome. :)

While the draw for us was the equipment used in the 70s TV show "Emergency", the entire museum was extremely interesting. Small, but well laid out. The museum is staffed by retired L.A. County firefighters, who were friendly, knowledgeable, and gave us a comprehensive tour. Definitely worth the drive to Bellflower if you're in the area.

The docents there are very friendly and I had a great time. Worth the trip. As a firefighter there is much to see. The exhibits are well preserved and maintained. Don't miss it.

A great collection of old and (then new) fire vehicles. It's biggest star are the fire trucks and memoribilia from the 1970's TV show "Emergency!". Parking near the museum is difficult, but there is a parking structure across from the museum that is free.

I was here for my friends' wedding. Everything was beautiful! We started in the outdoor area and then moved to the reception hall. The food service is wonderful. The security team is so nice and friendly; they watched out for anyone who didn't belong to the event. One guard, I didn't catch her name, also helped with getting carts to take down our belongings and the couples gifts; she even held up the dress train she was very sweet. The coordinator Monica set up a nice change area for us and assisted with the cues to begin procession. She continuously checked in on us and helped the bride to feel more at ease.

This place was wonderful. My husband is a retired firefighter. This was on his bucket list. Very emotional for him.

Lovely place. Amazing mini tour, it's a small museum that has a huge story of the bravery and courage of the firefighters and volunteers who put their lives on the line for us.
