The Peabody Central Fire Station is a historic fire station at 41 Lowell Street in Peabody, Massachusetts, United States. Built in 1873, the two story brick building is one of the oldest active[citation needed] fire stations in the state. The building has Victorian styling, with a mansard roof, and two truncated gables on its front facade. The cornice is studded with regularly spaced brackets, and a tower rises from the building's rear right corner.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
