Arlington Historical Museum (Hume School)

Address: 1805 S Arlington Ridge Rd, Arlington, VA 22202, USA

Museum

“David gave the best tour. If you're lucky you get to ring the school bell! As a DC native I will attest to learning something new today.”

The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation

Address: 401 W Duke of Gloucester St, Williamsburg, VA 23185, USA

Museum

“Truly a National Treasure worth visiting! They do offer a discount for residents of Williamsburg, though they do not extend that to neighboring counties, or state residents for that matter. (That's a shame.) They did not offer a military/veteran discount either. (That too is a shame.) We had a GREAT time on our Haunted Williamsburg tour, which took us inside the Wythe House, a side room at the Governor's Palace, and the Geddy House. Not sure if they use different homes year to year, but that would definitely keep it fresh and draw repeat business.”

Virginia Randolph Museum

Address: 2200 Mountain Rd, Glen Allen, VA 23060, USA

Museum

“This is an interesting place. If anything I wish it was bigger, and more people knew about the life and contributions of Virginia Estelle Randolph. Wow, what an amazing lady. This is next to a school which also features her name, as well as a very large "Softball Complex" in Glen Allen. So, be careful not to speed. Also, it can get very busy if you come during a tournament. Note that there really isn't a lot of parking on the North side of the street, and her memorial is very close to the road. I would definitely recommend contacting them before you go to confirm hours and COVID-era policies and operations. Ms. Randolph was a pioneer on multiple levels in the community, and in education, she even created the first "Arbor Day" in Virginia. She should really be the subject of a documentary, perhaps several. Until then, check this place out!”

“Amazing site. It’s is a great history of the battle and the museums are great love the walk through a soldiers experience. The earthworks are a great walk and the recreated trenches are awesome for realization of the battle. It is a must stop for history people and non history people. The plantation and houses show the civilian life as well. And are just as important.”

Museum

“I lived close to this museum for more than a decade and only now I went in What a great modern exhibit that follows in chronological order the contribution that women did from the revolutionary war to today. What i really appreciated was that at every chapter in history there was a section that explained how society reacted and what policy and legislative changes occured. I also liked that this wasn't solely a celebration of the group endeavors but different soldiers where highlighted. Afterwards, i drove to downtown Petersburg to purchase a donut in honor of the donut lassies lol.”

The Mariners' Museum and Park

Address: 100 Museum Dr, Newport News, VA 23606, USA

Cafe Park Museum Movie theater

“Completely transformed over the last 10 years to focus on the Monitor as it’s prime exhibit. Includes the turret and a large number of artifacts, plus a full size model of the entire ship outdoors and a full sized model of the turret indoors. The real thing is there undergoing preservation for years with good progress, but you can barely see it since it is under water. Beyond that, it has a huge Americas Cup yacht so big that even its own building is too small, a few small boats that now have an climate controlled warehouse, and an amazing set ships models.”
