Alcatraz East, Crime museum in Pigeon Forge, United States
The 24,000-square-foot museum presents artifacts, evidence, and exhibits about criminal cases, law enforcement methods, and investigation techniques across five themed sections.
The museum relocated from Washington D.C. to Tennessee in 2016, transforming from the National Museum of Crime and Punishment to its current form.
Exhibits feature notorious items including John Dillinger's Essex-Terraplane, Al Capone's rosary, and the Ford Bronco from the O.J. Simpson case.
The facility requires electronic payment methods and recommends visitors allocate four hours to explore twenty different exhibit areas across two floors.
Visitors can participate in forensic activities including CSI lab experiments, safe-cracking exercises, simulated shooting ranges, and digital fingerprinting stations.
