Fire Station No. 30, Engine Company No. 30 is a historic fire station and engine company located in the South Los Angeles area of Los Angeles, California. This site holds significant historical value as it was one of the first all-black segregated fire stations in Los Angeles. It was segregated in 1924 and remained so until 1956 when the Los Angeles Fire Department was integrated.
After its closure in 1980, the building of Fire Station No. 30, Engine Company No. 30 was repurposed and is now home to the African American Firefighter Museum (AAFFM). The museum showcases the history and contributions of African American firefighters through a collection of vintage fire equipment, apparatus, memorabilia, and photographs.
The African American Firefighter Museum (AAFFM) is open to the public and operates solely on the efforts of volunteers and the generosity of donations. This allows the museum to continue preserving and showcasing the rich history of African American firefighters.
