Metropolitan Police Museum Gallery Tour

  • 12 Sep 2025
  • In person
  • Pre-booking required

Join us on a guided tour of our special exhibition '150 Years of the Crime Museum' to learn more about the history of policing and crime in London.

To mark the 150th anniversary - and for only the second time ever - we are inviting you in to see exhibits from the collection of the Met's Crime Museum.

They tell the stories of famous and innovative cases investigated by the Metropolitan Police, including George Smith (the Brides in the Bath murderer), the Great Train Robbery, and Dr Crippen, but above all how justice for victims has always been at the centre of Met investigations.

Although carefully chosen for display, the material contained in the Museum relates to the history of policing and crime and includes material not suitable for children. We therefore do not admit guests under the age of 16 years old.

Please note, this is NOT The Crime Museum at New Scotland Yard, which remains closed to the public.
