Israeli Police Heritage Center, Law enforcement museum in Beit Shemesh, Israel.

The Israeli Police Heritage Center is a museum in Beit Shemesh that documents the development of law enforcement in Israel through its collections. Its exhibitions feature uniforms, equipment, documents, and photographs spanning from early defense organizations to contemporary policing practices.

The center was founded in 2015 and traces policing from early Jewish defense groups during Ottoman rule through the British Palestine Police Force to modern Israeli law enforcement. Each period reveals how enforcement methods and organizational structures changed over time.

The center's lecture program covers specific cases from police history, among them the investigation of Count Folke Bernadotte's assassination and the 1960 arrest and interrogation of Adolf Eichmann, handled by Bureau 06. The center also publishes books on these cases and produces the podcast "Stories from the Patrol Car," written and hosted by Yotam Steinman.

The museum is located near the Israeli National Police Academy and welcomes visitors throughout the year. Plan to contact the center ahead of your visit to arrange guided tours and confirm accessibility details.

The center publishes books on police history, among them "Lishka 06" on the Adolf Eichmann investigation and "Operation Air" on police activity in the Eichmann affair. A podcast, "Stories from the Patrol Car," written and hosted by Yotam Steinman, presents episodes from the force's past.
