This is a rare chance to visit the museum and see the time capsule that has been virtually undisturbed for more than a century. Admission is by our guest list only due to the limited size of the museum. The National Museum of Civil War Medicine is proud to partner with the General Services Administration (GSA) to remember a woman who worked tirelessly tending to wounds that no bandage or medicine could heal. Her third floor walk-up would become headquarters for the research and recovery of information about a family’s son, husband, brother, or betrothed – a place where in the aftermath of a horrific civil war, there was a possibility of reunion or at the very least, closure.
The National Museum of Civil War Medicine is the premier center for the preservation and research of the legacy of Civil War Medical innovation and humanitarianism. As a living institution, we utilize artifacts, storytelling and the historic lessons derived from that era to educate the public and define the impact on today’s society.
The Board of Directors and Staff of the NMCWM are honored to bring Clara Barton’s life and legacy into clearer focus as we celebrate our partnership with the GSA in order to open the Clara Barton’s Missing Soldiers Office Museum.
