State Police Museum 

Pennsylvania State Police Museum

The Pennsylvania State Police Museum stories one of the nation’s oldest law enforcement organizations through photographs, videos, uniforms, and evidence from the state’s most notorious criminal cases. Among their collection is a 1962 Harley Davidson Duo-Glide and a 1924 Model T which were used as part of the State Police Rodeo (Yes, you read that right!). Outside the museum you can peek inside three patrol cars including a 1973 Plymouth Fury II with a blue/yellow paint job that proved to be too flashy and was only used one year. You’ll also find a 1991 Ford Crown Victoria and a 1995 Chevrolet Caprice, which has a roof-mounted V-shaped emergency light system which was a departure from the “bubble” light that was used since 1960.
