Old Courthouse Museum

005
  With a slightly southern slant, this museum relates the history of Vicksburg during the Civil War. Artifacts, many recovered from battlefields, have been donated by local families. Additional collections include antique furniture, period clothing, china, and household goods.

  The museum sits high on a hill with a very long ramp to the entrance. The entrance door is very heavy. The bottom floor is fairly accessible but the thresholds between the rooms are a little high. A stairlift, which requires a transfer, is the only option to access the second floor.

   Parking is available along the streets.  Museum
