The collections fulfil an important educational function and raise the awareness on crime prevention; its target audience includes students of criminal and social sciences, law students, doctors, ethnologists, social workers and defectologists as well as the general public.
History
After the World War I documentation on criminal acts on the territory of Slovenia was collected in the old military barracks in Šempeter, Ljubljana. Later the collection was transferred to various locations and since 1970 the so-called Museum of Internal Organisation - Criminal Collection was housed at the Police Secondary School in Tacen, Ljubljana.
In 2001 a Police Academy was established, and as space was initially at a premium the museum was temporarily closed. However, in December 2006 the museum collections were finally allocated a space within the Academy and can now be visited by appointment.
Museum of Slovene Police is a member of Association of Slovene Museums.
