Civil War Museum
Located at 929 Camp Street, this Civil War Museum in New Orleans claims to be the longest standing museum in the state. It is absolutely crammed with various weird and wonderful memorabilia, including sword and flag displays along with some pieces from the famous Jefferson Davis. Other packed display cabinets contain fascinating items such as, pieces of Robert E Lee’s silver service and personal effects from common soldiers. Although the exhibits are not put together with the utmost professionalism, the sheer quality on show shines through. The building itself deserves some serious attention with the Confederate memorial Hall’s stunning terra-cotta arches and interior exposed cypress beams. The Civil War Museum stands very proud in the city which played a major part in the event, and holds a very special part in the hearts of the people. When visiting New Orleans, it is certainly worth considering a trip to this memorable place. The opening hours are Monday to Saturday from 10am to 4pm and admission is very reasonable, being in the region of $5. There are plenty of places nearby for refreshments and it is easily accessible from the city centre. |
