Are you looking for an activity for the winter holidays? Welcome to visit the Police Museum in Tampere! During the Tampere region winter holiday week, the museum offers special program for visitors.
The Police Museum in Hervanta, Tampere, is open to all, free of charge. We present the history and activities of the Finnish police from the Middle Ages to the present day.
“At the Police Museum, you can, for example, sit in a police van, take a picture of yourself in the suspect registration chair and watch old films about the police. In the special children’s section, young museum visitors can wear police overalls,” says Curator Maritta Jokiniemi.
The texts of all Police Museum exhibitions are available in Finnish, Swedish and English.
During the Tampere region winter holiday week, we will also offer special program.
– Do you have any questions for the police? On Wednesday, 26 February and Thursday, 27 February, you will have the opportunity to meet a police officer and police students in person for a chat. They tell about the work and studies of the police and answer museum visitors' questions about police work.
Free guided tours in Finnish are also available during the winter holiday week. You can find information about them on the Finnish event page.
