Toronto Police Museum and Discovery Centre

About this activity

When in Toronto, it's always so rewarding to visit an attraction that really means a lot to the city, and an attraction that just LOVES the city, so whether you have only a few minutes or an hour or two, enjoy a delightful visit to the Toronto Police Museum and Discovery Centre!

The Toronto Police Museum and Discovery Centre is spread across 3,000 square feet of space within the atrium at the Police Headquarters building. It's this museum and its exhibits that reflect the rich tradition and history of policing within the great city of Toronto.

The Toronto Police Museum & Discovery Centre is also a not-for-profit registered charity (operating in close partnership with, but separate from the Toronto Police Service that was built entirely from private donations) which means that YOUR visit helps fund the museum and allows it to remain open for families in the future to visit!

In fact, the Museum is funded solely through guided tours, donations, sales from their great gift shop and also research requests.

The museum offers a vibrant blend of the new and old, and is filled with interesting interactive displays all dedicated to expanding the community's understanding of past and present policing in Toronto.

You never know, maybe kids will walk away inspired to serve the police force too!

The Toronto Police Museum offer self-guided tours so you can just take your time as you explore the exhibits, but they also offer guided tours as well if you want to have someone there explain the history in more depth.

Whichever type of tour you select, make sure you book in advance and pre-book a time slot. All details and forms are on the website!
