7. Historic Registry Information.
QUICK DESCRIPTION:
Aetna Volunteer Fire Company House #5 was built in 1874. The Aetna Fire Company may have been named for the
Aetna Insurance Company, that was affiliated with many fire companies around the country.
LONG DESCRIPTION:
The Aetna Station #5 was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 12, 1976 (#76000059). Early fire protection in Fond du Lac was sparse, with only a
few fire companies established prior to the late 1800's when the city council organized the first paid fire company. Several fire companies were established in the 1860's.
Aetna #5 was established in 1874 and this fire house was constructed for this company at that time. At the time, it contained the fire department's central office and
housed the tallest hook and ladder equipment of the city. The building's architecture is in the Mediterranean tradition typified by its tall campanile. This tower had two
practical purposes. It not only contained the bell used as a fire alarm and as a curfew, it also was used as a place for the fire hoses to dry.
From the Intensive Survey of the Old Aetna station #5:
"The two-story Italianate fire station has a low-pitched hip roof. Projecting from the roof is a two-story square tower with a hip roof, decorative frieze and
brackets, round arched arcaded openings, and brick corbelling. The wide eaves of the main building are decorated with a paneled frieze, paired brackets
and a prominent pediment on the front facade. Under the frieze are rows of brick corbelling. Pilasters decorate the second story of the main facade
and extend two stories on the side walls, with a cornice separates the first and second stories. Two large multi-light garage-type doors cover the
fire truck entrances. In between them is a door with transom that serves as the main entrance to the building. Decorative brickwork at the
corners of the first story main façade resemble quoins.“ The Architectural significance is its a fine Italianate style and the historical significance is
its fine example of a nineteenth century fire station. The building is on the National Register as 193 N Main Street but the building is marked
as 195 N Main Street. The building was registered while it was still used as a fire station but in 1985 the building was retired, sold and
renovated into apartments on the second floor and office space on the first floor. It is now privately owned. It was extensively remodeled on
the interior starting in 2003 by a new owner and made into a private office (Law Firm) with living quarters on the upper level. It is how
it remains today.
