Paco Fire Station (1901)


Arguably the oldest existing fire station in the country to date. Like Tanduay, the Paco Fire Station was originally a single-storey barracks used by the volunteer Bomberos of the Spanish period.


The Americans later took over the facility and expanded the station with the addition of a second-storey and widened entrances. The station underwent several renovations in the years following World War 2.
