Old Las Vegas Mormon Fort State Historic Park
"A Mormon Settlement"
Before Bugsy Siegel made it to town, the Mormon Church created this tiny settlement in 1855. It is home to one of the oldest European-American buildings in Nevada. The site was purchased by the State of Nevada in 1990 and restored as a state park. Tours are available that outline the harsh life that the first settlers endured. The old fort was once a rest stop for those heading to California to seek their fortune during the gold rush. This section is also a part of the Cultural Corridor that lies close to the University area.
