The Firehouse 3 Museum, a retired fire station, is located at 700 Sixth Street in Racine, Wisconsin. It was constructed in 1882 and served the community in public safety until the building was officially closed on December 31st, 1967.  The museum is a place of honor where kids, and kids at heart can experience the drama and danger of fire fighting and view actual fire fighting artifacts from the turn of the century. 

Throughout the years the Fire Station housed a horse drawn steamer and hose cart (1882-1918), motorized fire apparatus (1918-1943), and Racine's first full time Rescue Squad (1943-1968).
