Kolkata Police Museum

The Kolkata Police Museum is a history museum located at 113 Acharya Prafulla Chandra Road in north-central Kolkata, West Bengal. Housed in a heritage building that was once the residence of Raja Rammohan Roy, the museum documents the history and evolution of the Kolkata Police. It displays archival photographs, weapons, uniforms, equipment, and documents related to policing in Kolkata since the 19th century.

Visitors can expect a small heritage museum housed in a restored two-storey building on Acharya Prafulla Chandra Road. Inside, galleries display historical photographs, old uniforms, badges, weapons, communication equipment, and documents tracing the development of Kolkata Police. The building itself retains heritage architectural features. The visit is primarily indoor, with guided explanations available, and is focused on viewing exhibits and learning about the city's policing history.

The museum is housed in the former residence of Raja Rammohan Roy at 113 Acharya Prafulla Chandra Road, where he lived from around 1815 to 1830. The building later came under Kolkata Police use. The museum was established to preserve and showcase the history of Kolkata Police, one of the oldest police forces in India, with exhibits tracing its development from the 19th century onwards.

The museum preserves the institutional heritage of Kolkata Police and the architectural heritage of a building associated with Raja Rammohan Roy, reflecting both civic history and 19th-century social reform heritage of Bengal.
