Schaefferstown Volunteer Fire Company, Old Station






Shaefferstown Volunteer Fire Company, Old Station, 211 Heidelberg Avenue (Main Street), Schaefferstown, Pa. Lebanon County Station 35.  Although volunteer fire service in Schaefferstown came and went since before the Civil War, the SVFC as it is today, was organized in 1909. In 1920 company and community members converted to old Evangelical Church, built in 1847, into a usable engine house for their new Hahn engine. Their current station, located 4 and a half blocks northwest, was dedicated on June 10, 1973.
