Founded in 1865 by veteran Union Army, Navy and Marine corps officers, and chartered in 1888, ours is the oldest Civil War institution in the United States. The Civil War Museum's purpose is to preserve the history of that conflict, and to promote public education through programs, research, and exhibitions.
The Museum's holdings include over 3,000 artifacts, more than 7,000 photographs, hundreds of art works, and about 400 cubic feet of archival material. Firearms, edged weapons, uniforms, paintings, photographs and flags are among the many objects in the collection.
