Description

Founded in 1960, the American Police Hall of Fame and Museum is the nation's first law enforcement museum and memorial dedicated to American law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty.

The Museum, through interactive displays, simulators and nearly 11,000 artifacts, educates the public about the history and current trends in American law enforcement. Students can learn about safety, science, forensics and so much more!

Visit the museum and explore a collection of historic and futuristic police cars. Or you can have your picture taken in a replica electric chair or behind the bars of a realistic prison cell. You can find out how law enforcement agencies do their forensic investigations and how crime scenes are analyzed.
