Fire Station No. 30, also known as Engine Company No. 30, is a Prairie School fire station in South Los Angeles, California, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Built in 1913 to serve a predominantly white neighborhood, it was segregated in 1924 and staffed only by Black firemen until the department integrated in 1956. Closed in 1980, it was adapted as the African American Firefighter Museum, which displays vintage fire equipment and histories of pioneering Black firefighters in Los Angeles.
