Clark County Museum
About This Museum
Tucked away just a short drive from the Las Vegas Strip, the Clark County Museum is a breath of fresh, historical air. You don't just read about history here—you walk right through it, exploring actual historic homes relocated from mining towns and the original 1932 Boulder City depot. The main exhibit hall is a treasure trove of artifacts, from ancient Paiute baskets to glittering minerals pulled from local mines. It’s a surprisingly peaceful and immersive experience that feels worlds away from the city's neon glow.
Collection Highlights
The crown jewel is definitely 'Heritage Street,' a row of preserved homes you can actually step inside, dating from the early 1900s. Inside the main hall, don't miss the massive collection of gorgeous geodes and mining equipment that tells the real story of how this area was built.
Visitor Information
It's incredibly affordable and easy to visit—just head to 1830 S Boulder Highway in Henderson. Wear comfy shoes because you'll want to explore every inch of the 30-acre grounds.
Architecture & Building
The museum itself isn't one building but a collection of them! The architecture is a living timeline, featuring everything from a rustic 19th-century miner's cabin to a charmingly restored 1930s Spanish-style railroad depot.
