Very special museum in colombia, you can know the history of police in colombia, they even the trace of those narcos, they have an exhibition room of this hostorical event about pablo escobar, in the show room you can find tge clothes that escobar wore when he got arrested. the policeman inside of the museum can answer some questions about your questions of this museum.

This is a free activity. The museum tour is led by an active National Policeman. It takes about an hour, at which point he'll invite those that want to leave to leave and he'll continue on with those that want to stay. In the second half of the tour you'll see some real highlights like an armory with all the weapons used by the police and a roof-top viewing of the city's skyline. In the first half there is the world history of law enforcement, the development of Colombia's police force, and the story of the capture of several big criminals including Pablo Escobar. I found the museum to be extremely interesting and our tour guide was very...

Awesome museum in Bogotá, clearly underated (particularly compared to museum like the Museo del Oro). We had a private guided tour for free. Had the chance to have details regarding the police activity and action during the Narcos period of the country, great occasion to see the "other side of the story" and different point of vue on the issue. Not only that, you have details on the police formation, evolution and their history since the beginning of the 20th Century.

All of this, for free. Seriously, do not wonder anymore, this...

El Palacio Museo Histórico de la Policía Nacional, ubicado en Bogotá, es un espacio dedicado a preservar y compartir la historia y evolución de la Policía Nacional de Colombia. Situado en el centro histórico de la ciudad, en una edificación de estilo republicano construida en 1923, el museo alberga una amplia colección de objetos, documentos, fotografías y artefactos relacionados con la institución policial y su papel en la historia de Colombia. La visita al museo permite a los visitantes explorar diversas salas temáticas que recorren más de un siglo de historia policial, desde su fundación en 1891 hasta el presente. Entre sus exhibiciones más destacadas están las dedicadas a las técnicas de investigación criminal, el desarrollo de la tecnología policial y los uniformes y equipos utilizados a lo largo de los años. También cuenta con una exposición de armas antiguas y modernas, así como objetos históricos utilizados en operaciones importantes. Además, el museo incluye una sala sobre figuras relevantes de la policía, y una exposición sobre la lucha contra el narcotráfico y el terrorismo, donde se presentan elementos y objetos incautados en operativos históricos. En algunas salas, se pueden ver vehículos y motocicletas antiguas utilizadas por la policía, y las visitas guiadas ofrecen información detallada sobre los diferentes períodos y desafíos que ha enfrentado la institución. El Palacio Museo Histórico de la Policía Nacional no solo es un espacio de exhibición, sino que también busca ser un puente de comunicación entre la policía y la ciudadanía, promoviendo valores de servicio y compromiso.

Located downtown. I didn't realize it was a guided tour so I had to wait around for about 15 minutes until they found an English speaking tour guide. My guide was Oscar - pretty good English even though he said his English was quite poor! There is no charge for the guide. The famous Pablo Escobar room and a floor full of confiscated weapons - swords, guns etc. That's the reason why you have to be guided around the museum. Nice place to visit for a few hours.
