The Met’s Police Museum holds an important collection of photographs, archives, books, equipment, uniforms and other objects, some of which date from the start of the service in 1829. We make this accessible by curated displays, talks and a research room.

Access: Open for pre-booked research visits Tuesday and Wednesday. Please email for booking information. Please note we are unable to provide facilities to view film material on site.
We are always looking to add to the collection so we can tell the full story of the Metropolitan Police and the crimes they have investigated. We collect uniform, photographs, documents, equipment, books and many more items. If you have something that you would like to donate please contact us.
We only collect items relating to the Metropolitan Police not other police forces. If your items relate to other police forces please contact them directly.
Quote:
Film has captured the way in which the MPS has policed London. The collection provides an insight into the relationship between the officers and staff of the MPS and the people of London.
