Located
on the northern end of the Citadel terrace,
the National Police Museum focuses on some
of the most infamous crimes in Egyptian history
and how the police discovered and arrested
the culprits. The objects on display include
photographs from crime scenes, some weapons
used in assassination attempts (including
the failed attempt on President Gamal Abdel
Nasser’s life in 1954), and objects
seized from tomb robbers. Labels are in Arabic
and English.
