Often just called “The Mob Museum”
The museum is supposed to tell visitors the truth about notorious mobsters in American history and the cops, prosecutors and undercover agents who beat them back.
Visitors will experience flashy displays, gory stories and details about mob life that are unfamiliar to most people who aren’t wiseguys or FBI agents.
The exhibits cover three floors of the former United States Post Office and Federal Courthouse building dedicated in downtown Las Vegas in 1933.
Exhibits explain how mobsters skimmed money from casino count rooms and sent it back to bosses in the Midwest.
