    The American Revolution was dramatic, gritty, and full of uncertainty- an era of unparalleled political and social upheaval, even by today’s standards. Museum visitors are invited to explore this rich and complicated era and its connections to our world today. Through its unmatched collection of Revolutionary-era weapons, personal items, documents, and works of art, the Museum considers the complexities of our nation’s history and uplifts stories that have gone untold.

Browse hundreds of artifacts and pieces of art including sculptures, maps, uniforms, and weapons used during the Revolutionary War. Explore recreated historical scenes that bring to life the events that created a new nation against incredible odds.
