You have heard the stories. You have seen the movies. But every story has two sides. What people say happened—and what really happened. And the only ones who know the true side of the story are those who were there.

The Mob Museum offers a world-class interactive journey through the histories. From the birth of the mafia, to today's headlines. Shadows and whispers. Police and mobsters.
Like it or not, this is American History. This insightful and authentic look at the impact of organized crime on the world reveals an insider's perspective on events and characters and the ongoing battle between the Mafia and the Law. True stories come to life with engaging, multi-sensory exhibits and unparalleled perspectives from those in the front lines on both sides of the battle. The Mob Museum offers a provocative and contemporary look at this fascinating subject through hundreds of artifacts and immersive stories. We bring mafia stories to life so completely, you'll feel like you're a part of it. But hey—we didn't tell him.
Artifacts embedded throughout the museum's interactive exhibits offer an inside look at many of the biggest names in organized crime, including Alphonse Capone, Dion O'Bannion, George Moran, Charlie “Lucky” Luciano, Meyer Lansky, Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel, Sam Giancana, Joe Bonanno, Frank "Lefty" Rosenthal, Mickey Cohen, Tony Spilotro, John Gotti, and Whitey Bulger. The museum is also working with the FBI and many famous undercover agents who made a career fighting the Mob, including legendary agent Joe Pistone who infiltrated the mob posing as Donnie Brasco, a small-time jewel thief; and Cuban Jack Garcia who successfully infiltrated the Gambino family.
