Clark County Museum

Introduction

Set along historic Boulder Highway, the Clark County Museum is one of southern Nevada foremost local history institutions. The campus weaves together relocated historic buildings ranging from a Southern Paiute archaeological site to a fully furnished 1950s atomic-test house, tracing Las Vegas evolution from Mormon frontier outpost and railroad water stop, through Hoover Dam construction camp, into a casino capital and atomic-age metropolis. Holdings include vintage neon signs, early gaming artifacts, railroad and mining tools, and folk objects reflecting desert multicultural life. Outside on Heritage Street visitors step into authentic miner cabins, a vintage telephone exchange, and a tiny wedding chapel moved here brick by brick, immersing themselves in the grassroots memory of this legendary desert city.
