The Mob Museum examines organized crime and law enforcement in a former federal courthouse and post office in downtown Las Vegas.
The Mob Museum examines organized crime and law enforcement inside a former federal courthouse and post office in downtown Las Vegas. Its restored courtroom hosted a Kefauver Committee hearing on November 15, 1950, connecting the building itself with the history interpreted by the museum.
Artifacts and immersive exhibits address organized crime’s impact on American society. The Underground speakeasy and distillery adds a separate Prohibition-themed experience. Interactive activities, admission packages and age requirements differ, so these experiences are distinct from the core historical galleries.
