    Housed in a gun foundry built in 1861, the center explores the Civil War through three perspectives: Union, Confederate and African American. Segway tours regularly run through the former ironworks.

    On the same grounds as a national park. Museum has several interactive exhibits, but is very reading intensive overall. Worth a visit.
