A row of old fire engines at the National Emergency Services Museum.

National Emergency Services Museum

Fire your imagination in the world’s largest combined Emergency Services Museum! The museum is located in one of Yorkshire's first purpose-built combined Police, Fire and Ambulance Stations, dating back to 1898.

With over 40 vehicles on display across three floors of exhibits, all housed within this stunning historic building, you'll see everything from horse-drawn fire engines and ambulances to police cars  and even an RNLI boat.

The museum recently won the national Kids in Museums Family Friendly Museum Award.

Discover the grim side of crime in the museum's original police cells and learn about the vehicles, uniforms and equipment they use both then and now. See what it’s like to stand next to a road traffic incident and see how the services work together to rescue people.

You can even take a ride in a real life fire engine and live the dream of becoming a firefighter for the day, with a Fire Engine Ride. (weekends only).
