North Charleston Fire Museum 4975 Centre Pointe Drive, North Charleston, SC 29418

"Wonderfully maintained; friendly and helpful staff and docents; interesting information. Excellent value. Nothing negative to say- great way to spend a couple of hours for all ages."

"We have been here twice now and both times the kids loved it. They did an amazing job of showing the history, making things fun and interactive for kids, and informative. Extremely affordable admission. If you are in Charleston, it is definitely worth the visit."

"Really enjoyable experience! The fire engines are beautifully presented along with historical information from the time period.I went on a Thursday around lunchtime, and it was not crowded at all. There are a few interactive areas and a movie about fire safety. The movie is geared towards kids but I found it to be interesting and educational. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable. Would recommend for adults as well as kids."

"My son and I wound up with an hour to kill around noon on a Friday and found this place. It's kind of fascinating and surprisingly comprehensive. I'd never know that cut glass water grenades were an example of an early firefighting technology, for example. They've even got a Japanese firefighting suit from the WW2 era. We spent nearly an hour looking at patches/badges from fire companies in different cities, trying to see how many of them we've actually visited."

"Liked it a lot. Great place for little kids and anyone interested in fire safety, engines, etc. One of my kids was a little scared of the sirens and darkness but it's a nice museum. Many fire trucks over the decades on display plus a truck is set up to stimulate driving a real engine. Kids can also make their own sticker name badges. Gift shop on site. Easy parking."
