Fantastic Museum open Thursdays through Sundays, this museum is about history, culture, way of life, education, textiles, families who lost everything and how people survived. There’s a small admission fee and allow about a hour or so to admire every relic. There’s a gift shop area that sells adult and children t-shirts, historical jewelry made from relics found in the low country areas made by a local artist, books, stickers and novelty items. This Musuem is ran by a fabulous group of ladies and they know everything there is about Charleston’s past and present.
I loved looking at the textiles, how women hand stitched their dresses, children clothes and gloves. The watermelon seed brooch is my favorite. How cleaver and such detail.

It is a good place to check out the history and souvenirs. It definitely holds a lot of historical significance, so definitely check it out.

Very interesting place, seeing I didn't even know it existed until today! Confederate museum, caution written on the sign, take it for what it is... history - learn from it so it's not repeated. Pictures included to show kind of artifacts preserved by the Daughters of the Confederacy. Military and Veterans enter for free, which was nice for my husband.

The woman who had set the scene for us at the museum was absolutely delightful. She really transported us back in time to when the war memorabilia was collected to create the museum. There were things there that you wouldn't find in just any museum and the small library was fantastic.

Very cool place. The ladies were so helpful. Gave us info we were not expecting, and found info about my husbands great grandfather. They took time to listen and help with info. So many great artifacts. It’s a must for a history lesson.
