The Bonnie & Clyde Ambush Museum is a tourist attraction located in Gibsland, Louisiana, the small town where gangsters Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker were shot to death on May 23, 1934. The museum has been open since 2005. The museum features a "Death Car", similar to the vehicle in which the duo was killed. The actual car is owned by The Primm Valley Resort & Casino in Primm, Nevada.[1]
The Bonnie & Clyde Ambush Museum had on display in its early years the vehicle used in the 1968 Warren Beatty film, Bonnie and Clyde which was eventually sold to the Alcatraz East museum in Tennessee.[2] The Louisiana museum also has several personal effects of Barrow and Parker including clothes and personal possessions.
