Central Ohio Fire Museum

Columbus' Engine House No. 16, built in 1903, operated as a city ladder company between 1908 and 1981. The building is now home to the Central Ohio Fire Museum and is on the National Register of Historic Places.

Oh, it is also supposedly haunted by the snorting of ghostly horses. The ghosts of horses once stabled there to pull the fire wagons.
