The Cincinnati Fire Museum

09/02/2026

Join us for a very special Family Day at the Cincinnati Fire Museum featuring a dozen adorable Dalmatian puppies! Guests will have the chance to meet, interact with, and enjoy some puppy time while exploring the museum.

Dalmatians have been associated with firehouses for generations. In the days of horse drawn fire engines, Dalmatians ran alongside the horses and helped clear the path as fire crews raced through busy streets. They also stayed with the horses at the scene, helping keep them calm and guarding the firehouse equipment. Their loyalty and distinctive appearance eventually made the Dalmatian an enduring symbol of the fire service.

Bring the family, meet the puppies, and experience a fun piece of firefighting tradition!

This special experience is included with regular museum admission.

Thank You WCPO Channel 9 for the excellent coverage of the Tunnels to Towers Foundation event last Saturday, Remembering the 25th Anniversary of the 9/11 Attacks on our country.

We were honored to be T2T's partner here in Cincinnati.

The World Trade Center Steel Flag in your photo is proudly on display in our Cincinnati Fire Museum and will soon be permanently installed.

We were honored by the 1,000+ Visitors to our Museum... celebrating the first paid Professional Fire Department in the nation.

A nearly 20-foot, 17,000-pound piece of steel recovered from the South Tower of the World Trade Center made a stop in Cincinnati this weekend, 25 years after the Sept. 11 attacks. For Scott Nokes, the Marine veteran and former firefighter traveling with it, the mission is deeply personal.
