I stopped by the National Civil War Naval Museum in Port Columbus, Georgia and took some pictures.
Immediately on entering, I found myself overlooking a gallery displaying various flags and artifacts.
I started to explore the museum. A cannon was one of the first exhibits I found up close.
As I made my way around it, I stumbled across what I later learned was the highlight of the museum- the remains of the CSS Jackson, a massive Confederate ironclad.
There was a replica of the CSS Albemarle.
The replica Albemarle was "docked" at a small replica period dock.
Outside of that area, I was in the main gallery I had overlooked when I first came in. On one side there was a partial replica of the USS Monitor, showing off the turret.
The other side on ground level contained various artifacts on display.
There was a full size replica of the USS Hartford.
There was a series of boards on the Battle Of Columbus.
Flags and explanations were on display.
Numerous paintings were displaying naval forces of the war in the same gallery as the remains of the USS Hunchback.
