Explore an Ironclad Warship at the Civil War Naval Museum

Quit reading about history! Go see it. 🇺🇸⚓️🫡 {Save this amazing museum for your Georgia road trip!} Go see an Ironclad in read life at the National Civil War Naval Museum in Columbus, Georgia only 2 hours south of Atlanta. When you read about these iron covered war ships from the Civil War… 👉You aren’t picturing this I promise. At the museum, you will meet the wooden remnants of the CSS Jackson. It has a huge metal overlay to show you the original gigantic size. ❗️I honestly had no idea that people in the 1860s could make such vessels. This is a small museum, but it’s so full of naval history and American history and ship replicas and historical artifacts…. You won’t be able to soak it all in. ⭐️Not to mention, there are only four surviving iron clads in the US. If it’s close to you, why haven’t you seen it?! ⭐️ This year’s homeschool cycle for Classical Conversations in American history. Here in Georgia, Civil War and live in the South is everywhere. There’s so much history that it honestly overwhelms me. And I can’t keep track of dates and places and all… so I just give up. 👉But this ironclad? This sticks with me. ✅Add it to your family roadtrip. ✅Add it to your homeschool curriculum. ✅Go nerd out and learn for fun. Combine this museum with the nearby National Infantry Museum. Another equally awesome Columbus-area museum - that’s free! @infantrymuseum . . . 📍Sept 2021 (Thus the masks 😉) //Make sure you’re following me @reclaimingwonders .
