BERLIN FIRE COMPANY

SERVICE FOR OTHERS SINCE 1910

For generations, the Berlin Fire Company has been dedicated to protecting the community of Berlin and the surrounding areas. Our volunteer members respond around the clock to provide fire protection, emergency medical care, and rescue services when our neighbors need us most.

About us

We've been protecting
the community since 1910

From 1895 until the time that the first water mains were laid, the town was served by a bucket brigade. There was no organization, you simply grabbed a bucket and started water on either your, or your neighbor’s house.

In 1901 another major fire struck the downtown area, and again on October 1, 1904. These fires were fought with will, determination, and buckets.

A meeting was called by the Mayor and Council on January 28, 1910. All persons interested in forming a fire company were requested to attend. From this meeting, the Berlin Fire Company was born.
