Welcome to the Fredericksburg Memorial Military Museum homepage. Our museum is dedicated to the men and women of the Fredericksburg Virginia area who served in defense of freedom. Our collection includes material from the Civil War through WWI, WW2, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm and subsequent eras of the 20th Century. We provide Veteran's organization, schools, other public groups and events with displays, exhibits and other programs of historical interest. Our activities include research, restoration, living history as well as collecting material to be preserved for future generations.
