From medieval fighting buckets of straw or linen to many hand-and horse-drawn pumps of different ages, the exhibition offers everything for young and old visitors. Not to mention the extensive collection of over 600 fire helmets from all over the world. There are one or two cars as well, but mostly, the motorised section is located at the outdoor museum.
