Just warning you though, there's also a detailed murder scene mockup so maybe keep the kids away from that!!"

There are 25 displays describing police heritage, Queensland crimes, police investigative techniques, medals, the history of police women, operational equipment and transport, amongst others. The simulated murder scene is a popular attraction - you can come and try your hand at solving this crime. The Research Library is home to a monograph collection, as well as archival material and images that date back to 1864. Researchers are welcome to use these research facilities, but please contact the Museum to make an appointment. Museum staff can conduct research on your behalf if you are unable to visit the Museum in person.

Popped in here on the way to a friend's and pleasantly surprised. Open limited hours but you can just walk in and see the artifacts from the history of the police force from badges, a crime scene, flags and badges and more. They do have a store however that is open limited hours, but you can see online and then get this delivered. So very cool items. Well worth a visit if you near it.

Recently viewed the exhibit on a weekend, not very large but beautifully presented. The person on duty even went out of their way to present the exhibit, very nicely done. Highly recommend it.

An intriguing trip through the history of Queensland cops, complete with crime scene mockups, old uniforms, awesome cameras and technology.
