Housed in a restored 1933 courthouse, the museum features interactive exhibits, rare artifacts, and riveting displays, including the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre Wall, the only firearm related to the shooting, and a mock courtroom used in the Kefauver hearings—the first mob-related event to be televised.

Visit the Flamingo Hotel, the first luxury resort to open on the Strip, and hear the tale of Bugsy Siegel and the Meyer Lansky-backed operation that made it possible. As you walk through the district, you’ll witness how Las Vegas has evolved, from gritty beginnings to the dazzling entertainment hub it is today.
Along the way, you’ll also learn about the significance of landmarks like the Hoover Dam, which brought workers to the area, and how Fremont Street transformed from a dusty frontier road to the neon-lit, entertainment district we know today.
