The Museum features a mock up of an early 1900's police station. Also on display is a 1919 Ford Model A Police Car, old jail cell, and various artifacts from the Phoenix Police Department since the early 1900s.
In October 1993, the Phoenix Police Museum started as a small exhibit at the Historic City Hall, 17 S. Second Ave. With the assistance of Cindy Myers from the Phoenix Museum of History, a temporary six-month display was created. The event was enthusiastically received.
The Arizona Humanities Council funded a study of the artifacts to determine if enough material existed to open a small museum and it was determined that there was. Barrister Place was selected as the permanent site of the museum.
