Old Perth Fire Station (Fire Brigade No. 1 Station) is located at 25 Murray Street, at its intersection with Irwin Street, in Perth, Western Australia.

It was the first purpose-built fire station in Western Australia. It was opened in 1901 and continued in operation until 1979. The building now houses the Department of Fire and Emergency Services (DFES) Education and Heritage Centre, a museum displaying historic documents and vintage vehicles from the emergency services' early days.[1]
