Pennsylvania Military Museum Attraction Details
Pennsylvania Military Museum
http://www.boalsburgcentral.com
The Pennsylvania Military Museum depicts the military history of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, emphasizing the 20th century roles of Pennsylvania based units and of Pennsylvanians who have served in all branches of the armed services. The museum has recently been rebuilt. A new exhibit depicts the museum's superb vehicle and arms collections, using them to tell the story of the men and women who used them to defend our nation. The museum grounds are home to the 28th Division Shrine, created by the 28th Division veterans of World War I to honor their service in France. An extension of this memorial is the WWII 28th Division Shrine dedicated to the men who gave their lives in the Second World War. The Shrine grounds offer an attractive walking path and some larger artifacts as well as the memorials to Pennsylvania's military heritage. The Pennsylvania Military Museum is one of 26 historic sites and attractions on the Pennsylvania Trail of History. It is administered by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission. Please visit www.phmc.state.pa.us for more information on Pennsylvania history and www.boalsburgcentral.com for a Calendar of Events. For more sites and museums, visit the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission.
