点评:After visiting the National Museum of the Great Lakes, and the Toledo Fire Fighters Museum, we had to visit the Toledo Police Museum as well.
This is a smaller, self guided museum and a few vehicles to see. The real attraction is the timeline for TPD from the mid 1850's to today around the outer walls. Plenty of information on significant events and how technology changed over the years for Policing.
Somberly, there is a display memorializing the officers who have given their lives in the line of duty over the decades. The display gives the events leading up to the loss of each life. We were surprised to see that one such event occurred directly across the street from a house we once lived in (the even happened many years before we lived there).
There is a volunteer staff member on site to answer questions and was very helpful.
翻译:参观完五大湖国家博物馆和托莱多消防员博物馆后,我们不得不去参观托莱多警察博物馆。
这是一个规模较小的自助式博物馆,里面有一些车辆可供参观。真正吸引人的是围绕外墙的托莱多警察局(TPD)从19世纪50年代中期至今的发展历程。馆内有大量关于重大事件以及警务技术如何演变的信息。
博物馆内有一个令人肃然起敬的展览,纪念几十年来在公务中牺牲的警官们。展览讲述了导致每位警官牺牲的事件经过。我们惊讶地发现,这样的事件竟然发生在我们曾经居住的房子对面(甚至发生在我们住在那里很多年前)。
现场有一位志愿者工作人员解答疑问,非常有帮助。
