In Bevke the volunteer fire station was established on July 14th 1912. The same year, on November 25th, they collected the money and with it they bought the first firefighting manual pump Rosenbauer. The pump was made in Linz in Austria.

First and provisional storage of tools and equipment was in a shed at Tamic, but the same year locals started with the building of a fire station. July 1st 1913 the station was under the roof. So they were able to organize the second municipality gathering there.
