- Bremen Fire Department

The Bremen Fire Department is committed to serving the Town of Bremen, Indiana, and German Township of Marshall County, Indiana, by protecting life, property, and the environmen­t.

Responsibl­e for 63 square miles of fire protection, the department continuall­y improves the quality of service by being well-equipped, using the latest available technology, and by highly-trained and motivated personel.

From fire suppressio­n to our emphasis on fire prevention and Safety education, the department has always worked diligently to meet the changing needs of our community. The department holds an annual fire prevention class for school children, day cares, adults, and senior citizens.

The Town of Bremen maintains a Class-4 (Class 4Y in Township) fire insurance rating (also known as the Public Protection Classifica­tion), which is determined by a survey conducted by the Insurance Service

Office (ISO). The survey includes 3 critical areas: (1) fire alarm handling, which includes the 911 telephone system and dispatch capabiliti­es; (2) available water supply for fire protection and; (3) staffing and firefighti­ng equipment maintained by the fire department.

The fire department is funded by the Town of Bremen, German Township Trustee, and an Advisory Board, along with donations from the Bremen Volunteer Fireman's Associatio­n, Inc., and from members of the community.

If anyone is interested in joining the Bremen Volunteer Fire Department, call 574546-3660, send an email to mail@bremenfire. org or stop by the fire department for more informatio­n.

Donations are accepted to help the department provide the best service possible. Adding to and replacing aging equipment and continuing to provide training costs a great deal. You can mail your donation to: Bremen Volunteer Fireman’s Associatio­n Inc., PO Box 364 Bremen, Indiana 46506.
