The Charter Oak Firehouse is a historic former fire station at 105 Hanover Street in Meriden, Connecticut. It is a two story brick building with Romanesque styling. Its most prominent feature is the four story tower, which has lost its original wood-frame open belfry. Built in 1876, it was the first firehouse built in Meriden.
The firehouse was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 17, 1994. At that time it was the oldest municipally-owned building, and had been converted to offices.
