About West Midlands Police Museum
Three floors of Victorian cells tell their own stories at the West Midlands Police Museum on Steelhouse Lane, where we've transformed Birmingham's original lock-up into a fascinating venue for meetings and celebrations. The building itself dates back to the Victorian era, and we've kept every original feature intact while adding modern conveniences like lifts and level entrances throughout. For corporate meetings, our conference facilities provide an unexpected twist on the typical boardroom. Picture your team brainstorming surrounded by authentic police memorabilia and historical exhibits - it certainly beats staring at blank walls. We've hosted everything from training sessions to strategy meetings here, and guests often tell us the unique setting sparks creativity they wouldn't find elsewhere. Party planners love what we offer too. Your guests can explore the forensics trail between drinks, try on historical police uniforms for photos, or solve our holographic murder mystery together. The original cells, once home to Birmingham's most notorious criminals including members of the Peaky Blinders, now serve as conversation starters that get everyone talking. We've seen birthday parties, retirement celebrations, and themed events all work brilliantly in our space. Our café keeps everyone fed and watered, while the gift shop offers unique mementos of the day. The entire building is accessible, with lifts connecting all three floors, so everyone can enjoy the full experience. We're just a short walk from Snow Hill station, making it easy for guests to find us. Whether you're planning a team workshop that needs an inspiring backdrop or a party that guests will actually remember, our mix of genuine history and interactive exhibits creates an atmosphere you simply won't find in a standard venue. The stories within these walls have been captivating visitors for over 200 years - now they can be part of yours.
