“recreating the Siege of Vicksburg”
The Vicksburg Battlefield Museum, a 501(c)3 non-profit took on this project to create a museum in the Old Vicksburg Depot dedicated to preserving Vicksburg's rich history and heritage, with 18 years' experience in operating a major museum in the Vicksburg market. The City of Vicksburg and the Mississippi Department of Transportation have completed a $2.4-million restoration of the Depot. We have major collections displayed and need additional materials and funds to complete the exhibits.The museum is a great addition to the tourism attractions and industry in Vicksburg, with both education and entertainment value for all audiences. The Old Depot encourages Vicksburg visitors to stay long in downtown Vicksburg and visit local businesses and attractions.Help bring this project to a reality by becoming a Friend of The Old Depot.
Reviews
Small museum in the vistor center. We did the driving route because it was really hot. Now imagine having to walk around during the summer in a wool uniform and through the hilling terrain. Some of the roads were closed inside the park, so make sure to grab a map from the visitor center.
