You and a friend will tour the Los Angeles Hall of Justice and their new Sheriff's Museum with Historian Michael Fratantoni as your guide. The Hall of Justice reopened with an incredible restoration after it was originally opened in 1925. A re-dedication ceremony took place on October 8, 2014 after a lengthy $234 million rehabilitation that restored the building back to County service. The venerable granite landmark, the oldest government building in the Los Angeles Civic Center, was shuttered and vacant for 20 years following severe damage sustained in the 1994 Northridge earthquake.


The newly renovated structure houses the District Attorney's office and the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department and has been restored to its full glory with the Sierra White granite facades and the restoration of the marble-clad grand lobby and loggia. Historic staircases, the intact courtroom, and law library were restored to their original condition. The original elevator cabs were refurbished and installed in the new elevators. The jail cells were removed, however, the cell block that once held Charles Manson was retained and relocated to the lower level.


The Museum is a completely new addition that will open in October of 2018. Item redemption will be valid from October of 2018 thru October of 2019.
