Join the Reading Area Firefighters Museum for extended hours this June and July to celebrate America’s 250th Anniversary. The firehouse, located at the southeast corner of South Fifth and Laurel Streets in the Callowhill Historic District, is one of the most important architectural and historic landmarks in the City of Reading and Berks County. The site has functioned as a fire company’s headquarters since 1854, on the same site but in a building demolished in 1875 for the construction of the present facility. In 2010, the city vacated the structure, moving it’s sole engine company to a new quarters in the 18th ward. The station was sold to the city to be operated as a fire museum.
