There were so many fascinating exhibits. Plus the two actual Civil War gunboats ! And many large naval cannon! I am going back again to Columbus next month just to visit this museum. Full review by Sunshine650550

We am for family trip and had ages ranging from 12 to 80. Everyone had a good time and we learned a lot! Took us about 1.5 hours to go through the whole thing. Full review by AmyLeAnn30

Q:
When I was small I used to go to a museum in Columbus ga. I'm not sure which one but I rrmember an old wooden ship that eas inside. It seems like it was near where the fair was held in the seventys. Anyway near there was the ruins of a large stone building that we played in. Seems like it resembled leftovers of a coliseum like structure. I've always wondered what it was and I can't find anything on the internet.
A:
Think this might be the one. But whatever it is a great half day out.
