Wine Cellar Rental
Due to the historic nature of the building and the fragility of its artifacts and memorabilia, Engine House 25 and The Clemente Museum no longer host wedding ceremonies or receptions.
welcome
Engine House 25 is an immaculately restored firehouse built in 1896. The facility houses the Roberto Clemente Museum, Engine House 25 Winery, and the photo studio for Rieder Photography. It is a unique venue that perfectly combines artistry and local history.
The maximum capacity for a seated event at Engine House 25 Wine Cellar is 20 guests, or for a standing reception, the maximum is 40 guests.
