Outside shot of the firehouse with the New Bern symbol (the bear) just below the flag.
Great local attraction Interesting museum with nice displays and knowledgeable docents. A fun way to spend an hour or so in downtown New Bern.
Great for young and old, visitor and local A New Bern jewel that is a rewarding visit for all; young and old; local or visitor.
Very Informative My husband is a retired Fireman and we enjoyed learning about the history of the New Bern FD. They have some beautiful antique Fire Trucks, and a wonderful interactive display upstairs for kids and grown ups.

Attraction featuring antique fire engines including those used in the 1922 fire that destroyed one-third of the city. All equipment was used in New Bern, so the tour includes info about the persons who used the equipment, as well as how it worked. A Children's area offers many hands-on opportunities
