Lost City Museum
The Lost City Museum, originally known as the Boulder Dam Park Museum, was built in 1935 by members of the Civilian Conservation Corps. The National Park Service created the museum to exhibit artifacts recovered from local prehistoric archaeological sites, most of which were flooded when the Colorado River was dammed to form Lake Mead. Previously, the ruins had been brought to the attention of the Governor of Nevada, James Scrugham, in 1924 by two brothers from Overton – Fay and John Perkins.
