The Key Largo Volunteer Fire Rescue Museum, which opened July 4 beside Station 24, celebrates the rich history of firefighting in the community—from the department’s beginnings as a volunteer organization in 1955 to the fully paid force serving Key Largo today. Exhibits spotlight influential figures such as Chief Harry Davis, lifesaving equipment including the “Jaws of Life,” and programs honoring the memory of Sept. 11. More than a collection of artifacts, the museum is a tribute to generations of service, community pride and the people who have helped keep Key Largo safe.
