Lost City Museum

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Lost City Museum was built by the National Park Service in 1935 to exhibit artifacts from Pueblo Grande de Nevada. The museum is located in Overton, Nevada and operated as one of the six Nevada State Museums.[1]

The museum offers a reconstructed Anasazi building that is open to visitors.[2]

[edit] History

The museum was established as a place to move the artifacts from Pueblo Grande de Nevada which was going to be partially covered by the waters of Lake Mead as a result of building the Hoover Dam.
