Curated by Marnix Brendel, the OCA collection houses a unique archive of photographs, documents and historical artifacts related to organized crime.
History has proven that nothing is more disruptive to a society than crime. Our objective is to gain a better understanding of the history of organized crime and her devastating and lasting impact on our society. In cinema and literature crime is often being romanticized. By raising awareness through the OCA collection it is our goal to inform youngsters about the dangers of crime.

All items contained within the OCA collection originate from family members and friends of notorious mobsters as well of law enforcement officers.

This website is dedicated to Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino and all law enforcement officials worldwide, who dedicated their careers and lives fighting crime
