Super cute. Went by during the day. Big set up for a carnival. Seems like it's going to be very crowded tonight. Everyone is very kind. And my Spanish is lousy. read more

This is a historic fire station in the city of Ponce. It is very recognizable by its bright red exterior. Inside is a small museum filled with artifacts to honor firefighters from around the world. It was very hot the day I went, so I did not stay long as there were no fans to keep the interior cool. There is also a little wishing well on the first floor, where you can make a wish and the change serves as a donation. read more

If you visit Ponce, this is a must stop. it is an iconic place, not just in Ponce but in PR. It is very small, won't take up much of your time, and is something cool and historic. The best part is the location. It is in downtown Ponce's central plaza. Every town in PR has a town square with a plaza. It is the heart of the town. This museum makes this one one of the better ones. There is lots of life around the plaza. It is a fun place for kids to run around and there are several restaurants and cafes surrounding the plaza, and also nearby. Definitely worth a stop. read more

Parque de Bombas - Landmarks & Historical Buildings Near Me - Ponce, Puerto Rico

Visited again recently and I just love this place. The men at the entrance have always been so nice and friendly and will gladly provide directions, recommendations and random information about Ponce. We arrived with just about 20 minutes left before closing which was plenty of time to take in everything. Sadly, the student art gallery is gone, but the lions have now moved inside. Looks like they got a little weathered but still look cool. The exterior of the building is just gorgeous. Definitely stop here if you're in Ponce. I also recommend the art museum and La Guancha a boardwalk area with great street food and bars as well as pelicans. read more

The Parque de Bombas is just the way a museum experience should be, self guided and with the ability to look up close at exhibits. The museum pays tribute to the Ponce firefighters from the late 1800's. It's truly an experience if you are looking for a kid friendly, small place to visit. It's located at the Plaza, which itself has plenty of historical significance and water features to take in while the kids run around. Back to the museum, upstairs they have lions that had once be placed throughout Ponce but have since been placed at the museum. Overall great experience and you can't beat the free admission! read more

FireHouse in ponce, is more of a historic site, with a few trucks and lots of history on the walls. When you first arrive it has a sign that says its free but if u cant read and ask the guy up front he tells you to read the sign not so courteous. After a walk up the stairs you can enjoy through the windows a view of the town. Statues that have a plaque with details of the history. read more

Nice museum dedicated to firefighters in Ponce and Puerto Rico. It is a small Musuem which has plenty of information to keep you interested. It is in the heart of the Ponce Plaza which has plenty of things to do. I love this place and the building is very iconic Puerto Rico. You can not mention tourism in Puerto Rico without including this place. Bottom line, if you haven't been here then you should at least check it out. read more

Cool spot. Very nice, tranquil park with the historic building on the side. Street foods and gift shops. Not to forget the beggars all over. Still a great spot. We thought parking would be tough to find but turned out to be easy and it's free on the weekends. They do give out tickets so don't forget to pay if you come during the week. And careful with the hard to see blue spot on the corner. It's for the clinic and you may get ticketed or towed. read more

The most charming firefighting station I've ever seen! Painted with white and black stripes, it takes centerstage at the Plaza del Delicias. Head over here first to get a free easy-to-read map of Ponce's attractions. You can also buy a $2 trolley tour ride here. read more

This is the town's first fire station built in 1883. It's a popular tourist attraction and free to visit. The entire firehouse will take less than a half hour to get through. It's not that big. However, it's a good starting point to other attractions in the area. read more

This place is cool. Love the pics of the firehouse Chiefs from the first 1 to the last 1. And the helmets were cool. And the fire truck and buggy. My favorite thing was the lions in the front and the color of the building. When I come back I'm going back here. read more

Cute little piece of Ponce' firefighting history. I always enjoy going to the plaza and visiting.

This is located in the heart of the plaza with many shops and eateries. The bright red colors of the building are very attractive to the camera lens. Also the church at sunset is magnificent. I loved this area of Ponce with its souvenir shops. Everyone was friendly as well. I would visit this again when I go back to PR. The museum is a fire department museum very cute...but nothing spectacular except for great photos. Something more like a tourist info stop and attraction. read more
