The Division of Museums and History is comprised of the office of the administrator and six institutions. A seventh institution is under construction in Boulder City..

Through its flagship institutions, the Nevada State Museum in Carson City and the Nevada State Museum, Las Vegas, the division has preserved Nevada's natural and man-made history for several decades. The Nevada Historical Society, Nevada's oldest museum, adds a unique documentary record, while the Lost City Museum gives a glimpse at the region's rich Native American history. Railroad museums round out the historical offerings with some of the state's most popular attractions and artifacts.

The division serves the entire state and offers educational and interpretative programming for all persons. An active volunteer and docent contingent makes the division one of Nevada's strongest public/private partnerships.
