Explore the fascinating history of policing in New South Wales.

See the weaponry, equipment and historical uniforms used by police. Learn about the interaction between police and Australia's indigenous population. Ponder whether you would be tough enough or foolhardy enough to charge a gun-toting criminal armed only with a police issued leather baton. Or experience life on the other side of the law and step into our authentic 1890s holding cell and hope the other prisoners don’t take a dislike to you.
