The Police Museum will be closed from 15 December 2025 to 19 January 2026. We will open our doors again on Tuesday 20 January 2026. During the break, you can explore our virtual museum and online exhibitions.
You can take a virtual tour of the Police Museum using your own computer or phone. You can take a peek into the exhibition space and discover interesting objects and videos. There are two virtual presentations: you can visit the permanent exhibition, “The Police is Here!”, and the special exhibition, “The Coloured Truth”’, which has already ended, about art crime in Finland.
Four online exhibitions are now available. The recently launched “In Memoriam” exhibition focuses on police officers killed in the line of duty. The “Crime and Love” exhibition examines how changes in the law concerning sexual minorities have affected police work and the rights of sexual minorities. The “Police of Independent Finland” online exhibition illustrates how the work of the police and their professional skills have evolved since Finland became independent. The online exhibition “From Breeches to Coveralls” presents the history of police uniforms.
You can also visit the Police Museum's YouTube channel for videos about the museum's exhibitions and the history of the police. Some of the YouTube videos have subtitles in English.
We look forward to welcoming you back to the Police Museum after the Christmas break! Admission is free, and the museum has something for the whole family to see and experience.
