Step into the dark side of Sydney’s past with a visit to a historical police and court building (1856-1888) that once imposed authority on Sydney’s unruly waterfront. Explore the building’s atmospheric interior – heavy blocks of sandstone, spiked gates, winding stairs and the corridor of cells. Encounter a spine-chilling collection of criminal weapons and a mug-shot gallery of offenders that stare defiantly back at you from the walls. In the 1890s police Charge Room you can stand before the Duty Sergeant’s desk and imagine yourself being fingerprinted.

Overlooking Circular Quay, the Justice & Police Museum examines the social history of law, policing and crime in New South Wales.
