The Mob Museum, officially the National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement, opened in 2012 in the former federal courthouse and post office of 1933 in downtown Las Vegas. Its exhibits trace organised crime and the people who fought it; a 1950 Senate hearing on the mob was held in the building's courtroom. A speakeasy and distillery fill the basement.
The Neon Museum, founded in 1996, keeps retired signs from Las Vegas casinos, motels and shops. Most stand in the outdoor Neon Boneyard, seen on guided or self-guided visits, some relit after dark. The visitor centre is the shell-shaped lobby of the La Concha Motel, designed by Paul Revere Williams in 1961 and moved here from the Strip.
The Erotic Heritage Museum opened in 2008 on Sammy Davis Jr. Drive, a block west of the Strip. Its 2,200 square metres of galleries present the history of human sexuality through art, photography, artefacts and film, and it also hosts a stage show. Admission is for adults aged 18 and over with photo identification.
The National Atomic Testing Museum, which calls itself the Atomic Museum, opened in 2005 on East Flamingo Road. It tells the history of nuclear weapons testing at the Nevada Test Site, north-west of Las Vegas, from 1951 to 1992, with instruments, film, a simulated blast in the Ground Zero Theater and exhibits on the Manhattan Project.
