Fire Museum

The Fire Museum is a facility in Yotsuya, Shinjuku Ward, that exhibits materials about the history and activities of the Tokyo Fire Department. You can learn about fire protection and disaster prevention while looking back at the history of firefighting from the Edo period to the present age. Successive generations of fire engines are on display, and enjoyable dioramas and Japanese puppet theatre plays introduce firefighting equipment and techniques from the Edo period. Moreover, you can take a seat in fire engines and helicopters that were actually once in service. You’re welcome to bring your own meal and enjoy it in the panoramic lounge on the 10th floor. Come visit the Fire Museum for a fun outing or to deepen your knowledge in case you ever need to deal with a fire emergency.
