History
One of Mansfield’s best hidden gems, the Mansfield Fire Museum is dedicated to collecting, preserving and interpreting the artifacts, history and traditions of firefighting.
See the reproduction of a turn-of-the-century Fire Station.
Hear the antique alarm bell that alerted the firemen, and you can almost see the horses leave their stable to be hitched to the hose wagon.
You can stroll down part of Mansfield’s historic North Main Street where you can visit an old-time drugstore with an authentic marble soda fountain.
Come and see what everyone is talking about.
