Easy to book tickets online and I was pleased they offered a discounted price for Blue Light card holders. Helpful female volunteer upon arrival, who shared lots of interesting information and history. As a party of 4 adults, we enjoyed looking in and around the cells and imagining life in a custody facility. There were a couple of minor annoyances. Firstly, there were a group of Scouts - some were well behaved but others were running around, being noisy and taking up space which prevented us from accessing areas at the times we wanted to. Perhaps scout groups should make private bookings to ‘hire’ the museum just for themselves. The ‘cafe’ was basically a table with crisps, chocolate bars and a mini fridge of chilled drinks. Hot drinks were also available. Unfortunately, they ran out of bottled water which was a shame, but there were other options. These refreshment facilities were adequate and prices of items were reasonable. The website recommends allowing 2 hours to explore the museum, however we needed more than that and ran out of time due to the place closing at 4pm. I felt this was a bit early really. I understand there were several volunteers giving up their time, but a 4:30pm closing time would be more beneficial. We felt rushed towards the end, with one volunteer hurrying us out and another checking the toilets to see if we had left (this was around 3:55pm). Some of the most interesting sections were about DNA and forensic analysis. We would recommend visiting here and would like to return, but would allow another hour of time.

This place was a wonderful way to spend a few hours in the city, easy walking distance from the train station. Filled with lots of little rooms (cells) the kids could poke around and explore.
The lower floor was perfect for our 4&6 year old boys, they could practise their detective skills identifying the culprit through fingerprints, footprints, DNA and handwriting. They then dressed up and had great fun issuing Daddy parking fines from their own police station. All the while really friendly volunteers were on hand to answer questions and ensure everyone was having a great time.
Even though it was a Saturday it was a quiet and a calm environment where we could sit down have a drink and let the kids play.

What a gem of a museum! The West Midlands Police Museum offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of law enforcement in the region. We spent two hours here and couldn’t have done it any shorter without skipping bits. The volunteer helpers were incredibly friendly and engaging, enhancing the experience with their enthusiasm and knowledge. The original layout of the custody block and cells provided an intriguing and authentic insight into the past. Highly recommend a visit to anyone interested in local history or policing. It’s an eye opener!

Visited on a Sunday morning straight after opening time and was surprised how busy it was. Museum is clearly well looked after, exhibits are informative and modern and the volunteers are extremely approachable and knowledgable. Recommend a visit if you have even the slightest interest in policing.

Really interesting exploring victorian police cells, solving a crime using forensic evidence and trying on uniforms.
Fun activity for a wet day and it wasn't busy.

In the half term we decided to go to the police museum, this was a very interesting experience and it was made even better by the volunteer Phil. Phil was a retired police officer so was very experienced and told us many things that was fascinating. The day out was a risk because we didn’t know if it would be good and it turned out to be very interesting and memorable and this experience was definitely made by the man Phil. I definitely recommend it as inside there is also a cafe which is very nice and really cheap. Everyone is very friendly.

In the half term we were stuck on what we were going to do and we stumbled across the museum. Its historic building is full of fascinating information and interesting facts. Along with other this there are real life prison cells that were accessible and finally it was topped of with kind staff, a trail to keep the kids happy and a cafe. All in all this was a great day out and I definitely recommend it.

Where can tickets be purchased?
Feita em 6 de janeiro de 2025
Yes as far as I could see, but I'm not a wheelchair user. There's a modern lift to all floors and a wheelchair accessible toilet.
Wheelchair entry is up the side in Coleridge Passage.
Details of accessibility are on their website under the visit tab. Sorry TripAdvisor won't let me add the url. The website is museum.west-midlands.police.uk
I would give them a call on 0121 609 1700 if you've got any specific requirements.
Enjoy your visit, it's an interesting place with helpful staff.

Is there toilets inside?
Also when booked for a time does it matter if your late?
Feita em 19 de fevereiro de 2019
Yes, there are toilets.
It doesn’t matter if you are a little late - in fact, you avoid the queues this way! 🤣
