12 US Museums for the Inquiring Mind

Mob Museum, Las Vegas, NV

Step into the world of Al Capone and engage with real-life personalities of organized crime at the Mob Museum. This interactive museum lets you stroll through the dark history of the men and women who made a living through extortion, robbery, counterfeiting, and murder. And the law enforcement officials who went after them.

You’ll see a piece of the wall, complete with the actual bullet holes, where members of Bugs Moran’s gang were shot after being lined up during the infamous St. Valentine’s Day Massacre. You can even try solving crimes through forensic exercises.

You’ll probably need a drink after all this, so head downstairs to The Underground, where you’ll find the Speakeasy serving Prohibition-era cocktails and the Distillery that’s creating its own moonshine.
