New Exhibit: Bridgeport’s Bravest

Since 1796, the firefighters of Bridgeport have tirelessly dedicated themselves to protecting Connecticut’s largest city. Bridgeport’s Bravest is a new exhibit designed by archivist Jaime Pettit from the Bridgeport History Center, that showcases the history of firefighting in Bridgeport, as well as the fire department’s involvement in the community. The exhibit features authentic artifacts from the Bridgeport fire department, as well as photographs of firefighters throughout the centuries. Be sure to visit us on the third floor of the Burroughs-Saden Building!
