Wapak Fire Dept. Upgrade
Photo by Paige Sutter/The Daily Standard

The Wapakoneta Fire Department building was built in 1885 and houses the department's 19 firefighters during their 24-hour shifts. The building still has its original pole, which is still in use, along with two other poles used by the first responders. The Wapakoneta Fire Department is one of the longest continuously staffed fire departments in the country.
