In 1864, whilst extinguishing a fire in the Jesuit College, the firefighters came up with the idea to establish a fire department, even though such entity did not exist in the whole of South Eastern Europe. The Brigade was founded in May 1864 and remains the oldest volunteer fire department in this part of Europe. At one point, the Brigade had as many as 200 members. Be sure to visit the Museum of Croatian Firefighting.
