Looking to infuse some history into your wedding? Then the Old Firehouse and Police Museum is a great place to start! Along with the Fairlawn Mansion and SS Meteor Whaleback Ship Museum, the Old Firehouse and Police Museum is part of the Superior Public Museums group. Complete with fine masonry work and Victorian-period architectural style, the Old Firehouse and Police Museum building is filled with industrial style. With its turret-like hose tower, the exterior of the building harkens back to a time when horse-drawn carts were used alongside the first motorized fire engines; when large bells were rung by firemen instead of the glaring sirens of today. As the last turn-of-the-century firehouse in Superior, this 1898 building offers a unique setting for a small ceremony or one-of-a-kind photo opportunities. Say your vows on the first floor in front of one of the museum’s historic rigs, from the 19th-century, horse-drawn buggy used by the Fire Chief to the fully motorized 1944 L Model Mack truck. Or, treat your guests to an unforgettable experience by getting hitched in a replica jail cell on the second floor of this historic building. Open Thursday through Saturday from mid- May to early September, the Old Firehouse and Police Museum is the perfect setting for any fire or police bride, local history buff, or the bride looking for an offbeat venue full of charm.
