Welcome to the

TENNESSEE FALLEN FIREFIGHTER MEMORIAL

Our mission is simple yet profound: To create, maintain, and preserve a lasting tribute to Tennessee’s brave firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice while protecting their communities. Their courage deserves to be remembered—always.

Centered on the serene campus of the Tennessee Fire and Codes Enforcement Academy (TFACA), the Tennessee Fallen Firefighter Memorial (TFFM) stands as a timeless tribute to the dedication, bravery, and selflessness of Tennessee's Fallen Heroes. Each name etched into the pedestals of this sacred memorial tells a powerful story of unwavering commitment, extraordinary courage, and an enduring love for their communities.

We honor firefighters from departments, agencies, and organizations across the state, preserving their legacies and ensuring they live on in the hearts of those they served and protected.

Honoring the Brave. Remembering the Fallen.

The primary tribute is an annual event where we remember our brothers and sisters who have died, celebrate their lives & support their Fire Hero Families.

Remembrance, Celebrate, Support
