What was the name of the Guggenheim museum that operated at The Venetian resort in Las Vegas?

The story behind the answer

The Guggenheim museum at The Venetian resort in Las Vegas was called the Guggenheim Hermitage Museum.

The museum opened in 2001 inside The Venetian resort. It was created through a partnership involving the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation and the State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia, with the resort providing the venue.

Its exhibitions drew on the collections and expertise associated with both institutions. The project reflected a broader period of international museum collaborations in which major collections were presented outside their home cities.

The Guggenheim Hermitage Museum closed in 2008. It is therefore distinct from the permanent Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, and the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice. The Las Vegas venue’s name also should not be mistaken for the much larger Hermitage Museum itself.
