The village of Madisonville dedicated their new fire station on January 1, 1910. This postcard was issued to commenmorate the occasion. After annexation this firehouse was assigned the number 49. The exterior of the building has changed very little over the years.

After the Madisonville Volunteer Fire Company moved into their new station, the old firehouse was sold. The structure was moved several blocks to the north on Ward Street and converted to a private residence. This is how the building appeared in 2002.
