The Mob Museum in the former U.S. Courthouse

The National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement (the Mob Museum) is housed in the former U.S. Post Office and Courthouse building where federal judges and grand juries presided over organized-crime cases. Located downtown, the building hosted notable 20th-century hearings and trials that documented the presence and operations of organized crime in Las Vegas and nationally. The museum's exhibits include courtroom replicas, original artifacts, and documented testimony from law-enforcement investigations. The site's legal history and exhibits are widely cited in histories of Vegas and organized crime.
