Police Museum

Police Museum 41_12

Introduction

The forerunner of the Police Museum was the Police Historical Records Committee formed in 1964 which collected a significant number of artifacts relating to the history of the Force and proposed the foundation of a museum to display them. Originally housed in Police Headquarters, the Police Museum was started in a limited form in 1976 and later moved to Tai Sang Commercial Building in Wan Chai, and moved to the present site in 1988.

The Museum is divided into four galleries; Orientation Gallery, Narcotics Gallery, Triad Societies Gallery and Current Exhibition Gallery. It has a total floor area of 570 sq.m. in which over 600 exhibits are displayed.
