Since 1839, VMI has helped mold the history of America through the amazing civilian and military careers of its alumni. From the mounted hide of “Little Sorrel,” Stonewall Jackson’s favorite horse, to the seven Medals of Honor awarded to VMI alumni, the museum chronicles the story of America’s first state-supported military college.
The Virginia Museum of the Civil War, historic Bushong Farm, and self-guided battlefield tour provide many opportunities to reflect upon the social and military struggle which changed the course of American history.
Explore history at your own pace with videos and interactive exhibits designed to guide you through the life and home of Thomas and Mary Anna Jackson –newlyweds full of hopes and dreams. Discover their world on the eve of the American Civil War as you experience the finely preserved home and gardens of the man who became Stonewall Jackson.
