The Mob Museum provides a world-class, interactive journey through true stories. From the birth of the Mob, to today's headlines. Shadows and whispers. G-Men and Made Men. Whether you like it or not, this is American history. The Mob Museum is a three-story experience, with guests beginning on the third floor of the Museum. The third floor covers immigration of various cultures into the United States in the late 1800s, the rise of organized crime during Prohibition, and how organized crime spread across the country. Guests then work their way down to the second floor, where they learn about the Mob in Las Vegas and begin to see the efforts law enforcement took in the mid-1900s to bring down organized crime. To complete the visit, guests end on the first floor, where they begin to see modern examples of organized crime and the technological advancements law enforcement made in order to capture evasive mobsters. The Museum's collection includes over 1,000 artifacts, and real stories are brought to life with engaging, multi-sensory exhibits and unparalleled insights from those on the front lines of both sides of the battle. The Mob Museum offers a provocative, contemporary look at this fascinating topic through hundreds of artifacts and immersive storylines. We bring Mob stories to life so completely, you'll feel like you're part of them. But hey-you didn't hear it from us.

Very good place to go,loads to see and learn. Even if you think you know the history of Las Vegas you'll probably find out more. Could really spend at least three hours there if you want to make the best of it. Busy though.

Very good museum. You'll be able to see films, exhibits and artifacts from the mob days. There is a gift shop at the end of the tour which you get to walk yourself. Very interesting.

Off of Fremont Street, the Mob Museum is an interesting, history-filled stop. You could spend the entire day looking, reading, artifacts, and watching short videos about all the Mob families...Lucky Luciano, Al Capone, Meyer Lansky, Bugsy Siegel, etc.

Very interesting visit if you're interested in the mob culture and the way the US government dealt with the mobs of the roaring 20s onwards. Even have the wall of the valentines day massacre there. Good way to spend a few hours

My wife and I really enjoyed our time here. A lot of video and objects about organized crime from all over the USA. They covered the Mafia most comprehensively, but also motorcycle clubs and others as well. Law enforcement and the courts are also covered. The building was a courthouse were the Vegas trials were held. They have the bricks...

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to the Mob Museum and the chance to learn a bit of Vegas history. It was nice to be away from the strip and actually learn how Vegas began and influence of the mob on this city. For anyone who actually wants to learn about the place they are staying, visit here. It is only...

Great museum set in a stunning old post office building with a degree of interactivity. I liked the idea of putting my wife in the electric chair. Sadly not plugged in...only kidding.
