It s not a very big museum but loaded with history and memorabilia! Well worth the time to visit. I came away with an appreciation for the history of the CSA.

This Museum is loaded with artifacts from the civil war. There is so much history here including the building itself. The museum is small but only $10 to visit. Well worth the couple of hours you can spend here.
