Although the smallest museum in the city, it captivates visitors with its charm. Firefighting in Varazhdin has a long tradition. The city has been "burned" several times, and the first voluntary fire brigade in this part of Europe was founded here in 1864. The museum houses numerous fire extinguishers, diplomas, awards and photographs. The Museum of the Croatian Fire Brigade Varazhdin is the only space in the Republic of Croatia with a permanent exhibition of exhibits from the rich and long history of the Croatian Fire Brigade and fire protection.
Interestingly, a visit with pets is possible.

I enjoyed seeing the traditional fire fighting equipments used by the early Croatian Fire fighters. I really appreciated how technology has revolutionized this area and made work easier for the moder fire fighters.
