Sažetak
Fire-fighting in Croatia has a long and interesting history,
not reducible to a mere listing of facts, regulations and laws
about the organisation of the service or statistics about fires
and other call-outs. The voluntary fire brigades in particular
had a large role in the development and life of a place, where
firemen did not only perform their primary function but were
among the leaders of social and cultural life. The interesting
and rich tradition of Croatian fire-fighting deserves loving
preservation and adequate presentation to the public, and
with this objective the Museum of Croatian Fire-Fighting has
been established at Trenkova 44 in Varaždin.
Today the Museum extends over 400 square metres of floor
space on two floors. There are about 1200 objects in the holdings
of the museum, 350 of them in the permanent display.
Although objects from the central part of the country are numerically
preponderant, we have placed objects from all over
Croatia in the exhibition
