This is one museum the kids will not mind visiting. Firemen hold a special mystique for children and adults alike. This Oklahoma landmark shows visitors how fire fighting has evolved throughout history. Exhibits of antique, century-old fire engines both awe and educate visitors. One of the favorite displays is Oklahoma's first fire station, a rustic log cabin built just after the Civil War. Unique items like a collection of uniform shoulder patches and fire alarms show little-known aspects that accompany the profession. Admission: $3 Adults, $1.50 Children, $2 Senior Citizens.
