Greater Manchester Police Museum

#manchestertrip The Greater Manchester Police Museum is one of those rare places that manages to be both educational and genuinely entertaining. Located inside a restored Victorian police station, it offers a fascinating look at how policing has evolved over the centuries. From vintage uniforms and old crime scene photos to the atmospheric holding cells and courtroom upstairs, every corner tells a story. The volunteers—many of whom are retired officers—are incredibly knowledgeable and add real-life context to the displays. This isn’t just for true crime fans; it’s an engaging stop for families, history buffs, or anyone who appreciates quirky, lesser-known museums. Totally free and totally underrated.
