Since 2005, the museum has been housed in an Art Nouveau building of the former German volunteer fire brigade in Ostrava-Přívoz.

Suitable for teaching safety, emergency services and technology across all age groups.

Why visit this place?

• The museum building was erected in 1905 and until 1919 it was shared by the German volunteer fire brigade and the Přívoz savings bank.
• The museum opened here on 9 May 2005; the reconstruction was financed by the city of Ostrava.
• The exhibition is interactive — it expects you to touch the exhibits and try them out.
• Allow roughly an hour and a half; the programme is aimed at lower primary, upper primary and secondary students.
• There are 85 more tips within 25 km, enough to build a full-day trip.
• The whole programme is indoors, so rain is not a problem.
