The International Police Museum in Rockaway Beach, OR, pays tribute to the dedicated men and women of law enforcement. Thanks to the extensive collection of retired Chief of Police Ed Wortman, visitors can explore various aspects of the policing profession. The museum showcases a diverse array of law enforcement uniforms from around the world, historical weapons, and essential tools of the trade.
Younger visitors can engage in interactive activities, such as trying on authentic police gear, getting their fingerprints taken, and posing with "Fred," a life-size horse mannequin. Knowledgeable staff members are on hand to share insights into the history of policing, police communication methods, evidence collection, and the distinction between weapons used as tools versus threats.
