Description

Essex Police Museum, established as a charity in 1992, the Essex Police Museum tells the story of Essex Police. From the Victorian era to today, our museum has over 25,000 historical artefacts in our collection. Each artefact provides a glimpse into how Essex Police helped to keep our Essex communities safe and catch criminals since 1840.

At the museum we work to preserve the history of Essex Police. We collect, look after and display items relevant to our history with a view to providing Essex communities with an insight into the history of their police service.   

It's free to visit our museum on a Saturday. And during the school holiday's on a Wednesday too. If you are looking for Best place for day out with kids and families then this is the perfect destination offering fun, adventure, and unforgettable memories for everyone.
