The National Law Enforcement Museum is a mostly-underground facility located adjacent to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington, DC's Judiciary Square (400 block of E Street, NW). The museum covers American law enforcement through interactive exhibits, historical and contemporary artifact collections, with a dedicated space for research and educational programming. It officially opened on October 13, 2018.nThe architect for the museum is Davis Buckley Architects and Planners, the firm that also designed the Memorial. Plans for the museum's exhibitions include permanent galleries and one changing exhibitions gallery. The design of the permanent galleries was first undertaken by Christopher Chadbourne & Associates of Boston. When that firm closed, the design effort was completed by Studio 647 of Washington D.C. (exhibition design) and One By Design of Gloucester, MA (graphic design). Media elements were produced by Richard Lewis Media Group and Donna Lawrence Productions. The exhibits were built and installed by Design and Production Incorporated of Lorton, VA.
Very nice museum. I enjoyed very much. There exhibits were cool, interesting to look at and easy to engage with. It was also nice because it's not very big so you can really see everything and when you leave you wont feel like you missed anything. Teenagers and adults would probably really like it. Little kids will like some of it. It's a great place to spend a morning or afternoon in.
Great experience. We are law enforcement and the treated us very well. The simulator was realistic and fun. Even had a portion for corrections and K9. It was awesome. The memorial across the street is also a good place to stop and reflect for a moment.
Totally disappointed- this place is closed and everything on the website says they are open. Hello - wake up and be honest. We paid for parking and planned our day around going. No excuse for them not keep people up to date.
Fantastic museum. All about law enforcement tools, analogies, videos, statistics, analysis of few past incidents, some sample trial cases to be solved, sample forensic/weapon identification, real display of a police car with explanation of control, lights and sounds, role of police dogs, sample jail, a movie on law enforcement officials! Amazing place. Don't miss if your interests lie in these areas. Takes about 2 hours!
