Luggage Storage Near San Carlos Museum of History
The San Carlos History Museum is dedicated to highlighting the history of this beautiful Bay Area town. It is housed in a Spanish-style building built in the 1920s and originally used as a firehouse. When a new firehouse was constructed next door, the building was abandoned. In the 1970s, the San Carlos Lion’s Club demolished the original structure, rebuilt it, and donated it to the city of San Carlos.
At this point, the building was converted into a local history museum. It may be just one room, but the museum is packed with fascinating items from throughout San Carlos’ history. You’ll find photographs, pottery, art, memorabilia, and a film highlighting the story of San Carlos. There’s also a fully restored old-fashioned fire engine inside!
