- New Orleans' Confederate Memorial Hall opened in 1891 and is the oldest museum in Louisiana, featuring one of the largest collections of Confederate memorabilia in the United States. Join Garry Adelman for a tour, including a behind-the-scenes look at some artifacts!
This video is part of our tour series through Mobile, AL and New Orleans. All of the videos from the tour can be found here: • Mobile/New Orleans Tou...
The American Battlefield Trust preserves America’s hallowed battlegrounds and educates the public about what happened there and why it matters. We permanently protect these battlefields for future generations as a lasting and tangible memorial to the brave soldiers who fought in the American Revolution, the War of 1812, and the Civil War.
Civil War museums are some of the most fascinating places on this planet.
Indeed!
Great! I was there 10 years ago with my soldiers of 14th Louisiana Regiment after battle at Gettysburg.
Thank you.
ermmm?
My goodness, what an incredible collection, and so many items in such excellent condition. Kudos to the conservators on staff there!!!
I’ve been to New Orleans so many times how am I just now hearing about this place!
Thank you for getting to the Confederate memorial Hall they've got one of the five battle flags made I can't remember the whole story it is such a treasure trove I thank you so much for highlighting it the people running it are some of the best people that jhe museum are some of the best people thank you so much for highlighting it !!!!!!
Dang! That museum packs a punch. Thanks for the walkthrough. 👊🏻
This place is a treasure trove of knowledge and information. So glad a place like this exists and the educational value is immense.
So glad they got their asses kicked and the museum is the only thing left. Wonderful indeed!!!!
@@MrBigmurf1971 You just gotta love trolls. Especially when their comment makes no sense. Well, it would if you are on a 3rd grade reading level.
@@fateagle4life He does have a point, the pro-slavery crowd got slapped so hard they became a museum...
Proud to be a Founding Member of the American Battlefield Trust and Civil War Trust.
Awesome museum well worth a visit flag collection 2nd to none
I was there a year ago Absolutely amazing
Thanks for posting this interesting collection.
Garry, what a great video of what looks like an outstanding museum that's a must-see for any Civil War aficionado. I'll definitely get down there. I know my wife won't mind, because there's a gift shop. 😃
That said, I hope there aren't people whose heads will explode because of a museum showing the Confederacy. History is history. It's very important to study it, not cancel it.
Very sad that there is animosity towards the Confederacy. The war was fought over so much more than just the "slavery" narrative. I'm sure you understand this, it breaks my heart seeing our history being destroyed and mocked. God bless to you and your wife!
Without the issue of slavery, there would have been no War Between the States of the North and South
This is precisely where materials from the Confederacy belong- in museums, not public parks and squares.
Thank you, Garry! Not sure if we'll ever make it down that way, so it's wonderful to be able to take a little tour with you.
Live a life without going to the big easy? I hope you do get to go at least once. Maybe not try to challenge Mardi Grau, your first, second, third or fourth trip.😅 Late fall is good time to go, things are cheap for a big city (to my perception.) Check weather, about a month before, keep a little play in the date of visit, and you can visit the big easy on days that are like perfect spring days up north, and it will be late October/ early November with snow on the ground up north.
By the way the Confederate Museum is only about a hundred yards from the WWII museum
I was there many, many years ago. So glad that they were able to reopen after Hurricane Katrina. I think I remember reading that they might be closing after that due to funding. Hopefully they are on sound footing now.
What an amazing museum. Thanks for showing us
I love this place. This and the D Day museum are but one part of the excellence of New Orleans' living history sites.
Enjoying these videos so much. Thanks for taking us along 😊
Thank you so much, it was closed the several times I was there.
My dad always took me to civil war forts when I was a kid. If he had taken me here I would have freaked! Thanks
1) Gary has an indoor voice?? 2) I can’t see Gary throwing hands when he’s behind the camera. 3). Thank you for sharing part of this historical collection!
I always wanted to go to New Orleans. It always seemed to me, to be a bit in the Old World, and part in the New World. I'm thankful that these videos are available, for a lot of people, who may not be able to fulfill their goals.
Visited this Museum a few years ago. A true must see for any history buff.
Hooray for Dixie!
A superb museum. I'd love to visit it again.
I live near New Orleans and interference this place often as a “best kept secret” in New Orleans. I appreciate this video. Thank you for creating and sharing this!
What a place!!!! Long been on my list! Thanks for the video!!
GARRY !!!! I was there a year ago I stumbled across it because it's behind the WWII museum which is also amazing. If you read the stories that go along with some of the items, they are truly riveting! A lot of the Unit Flags were given back to the museum after the turn of the century They were taken at the surrender of the confederacy Great Video!
Beauregard's uniform coat at 8:47 is captivating, Thanks for the vid.
My great great great grandpappy fought in the Luisiana tigers!
Enjoyed this! Thanks Garry! ABT! 👏👏
Incredible! Thanks so much for sharing, Gary and crew. Politically irrelevant but I always thought the south's officer's coats with their neck and sleeve insignia were so much better looking/stylish than the north's.
SAVE OUR BATTLEFIELDS AMERICA 🇺🇸
Give a shout-out to the amazing World War Two museum complex right down the street from there.
Thanks Garry - I visited many years ago - amazing collection. Right across the street from the National World War II Museum.
I found this museum 8 years ago while attending a reunion for my first ship, USS Dahlgren DLG-12, while serving in the Navy back in the early 70's. It is probably the best Civil War museum I have been to.
I have always wanted to go there and have not made it there yet. Appreciate the quick look at the museum. Fantastic.
Another amazing video series, your work is truly appreciated.
outstanding
Nice quick video, i love this stuff
Wow, that was amazing. You are so lucky to have so much interesting stuff. Thanks from London, England.
I donated leather items to this and the Franklin Battlefield Museum. They were found around Franklin and Port Hudson Battlefields.
I visited there about 7 or 8 years ago but couldnt find it on my last visit, I was afraid it had been closed down. I dont live far from NOLA so need to visit the museum again.
One thing that struck me with the uniforms was how small they were. Another thing, look at the building and it very much looks like a church inside which I imagine was deliberate in 1891.
Incredible. This was a great treat.
Great job Garry, thank you.
Interesting video and you funny sir
I'm putting this place on my list to visit.
DEO VINDICE! [>
That is a fantastic museum, just the way I like them with lots of artefacts and excellent explanations. To top off a brilliant day, the World War 2 museum is just around the corner. Who could ask for more?
I was there several years ago.
Thank you for sharing!!
That was speed tour Gary. Could have taken a little more time. But, the spoils to the victor. Thank you for showing!👌
My ancestors Immigrated too New Orleans, and fought with the tigers.
Very interesting, I would love to see it myself!
Dias difíceis si aproxima da América. É preciso usar de sabedoria para vencer tais dias e tempos
The Confederate Memorial Hall is only a couple of blocks from the National WW2 Museum which is an embarassment of historical wealth.
It should be noted that the museum itself and its displays are an artifact itself. You do not see that style of displays in wooden cases much any more.
Interestingly enough, the gun outside (a Rodman IIRC) is placed upside down. This is because the left trunnion is broken off (probably when Spanish Fort was abandoned) and the gun is placed in a way that hides that defect.
Also, when I was there a few years ago I was impressed by the gift shop. Very high quality for a small museum.
Very cool gary thanks
Don't let it go the way the Confederate Museum in Richmond did!
Amazing
Jefferson Davis body was held " in state " at memorial hall.
I am into historic history ! Like vist this place . Where is it location ?
wow i live outside new orleans and didnt even know this existed lol i go to ww2 museum all the time but i will be going asap
Are you still in New Orleans? If so I live here
GOD BLESS DIXIE ❤ AND LONG LONG LIVE THE SOUTH ❤
Speed tour...
enjoyed video, but little too fast.
I see they changed the sign 🙄
bro used the word galore so much
😂
Kids these days don't get taught about the civil war. It's up to the parents to do it. Nether one of my kids didn't know anything about the civil war. They was taught about civil rights. I had to teach me kids about the great Robert E Lee and the others. I have took my kids to Shiloh. They seen the nice graves of the union soldiers and the mass graves for our southern soldiers. It's best that you teach your children and not the school. That way they won't get taught the lie's they telling.
Thank you sir for sharing the truth with your children. I wish I could shake your hand and give you a hug👍
Checkout Donald Livingston on UA-cam, he has some great lectures on the civil war and our history in general if you are ever interested. H.K. Edgerton also has some good videos on UA-cam, God bless!
Holy crackpot Batman, there's a history denier in here.
It's a good thing the confederates got slapped so hard they turned into museums...
Did you have a plane to catch, or something. Slow down dude !!
Surprised the woke crowd hasn't shut it down yet...
They've tried, someone tried to set the museum on fire but ended up cracking the front porch. There's iron bars and a gate around the porch and then a reinforced iron door covering the wood door.
They have my distant relative killed with 5 Washington artillery sash and Bible. T m Blair
Don't think I feel right about memorializing slavers.
Well, I'm a Pennsylvania man, and I had two great-grandfathers, who served in the War. Yes, you read that right... I was a Civil War reenactor, (42nd PVI, Co.B. "Bucktails ") for over ten years. I personally don't have any animosity towards those who fought. We could talk forever about the moralizing of the Confederate cause, the slaves, the reasons, why's, and wherfores of everything. Yes, it was a horrible time, and the best side won. If, you're going to find out where you're going... You've got to find out, where you've been... If, we forget our past, we will end up repeating it.
Museums concerning this topic should exist, but unfortunately some of them are run by the wrong people, who simply don't get it.
the civil war was caused by alot of OTHER things. i'm from TN and that misconception is way to common... also slavery is bad dont get the wrong idea
Your tour was too fast poorly done and it looks unscripted .
I was kind of excited when I saw the girls but because u moved so fast I got dizzy and I thought u wasted my time, thanks for nothing
You may enjoy our previous video from the museum more: ua-cam.com/video/XTr0201JXaU/v-deo.html
You gotta excuse that dute, he starts foamin' at the mouth when he gets near a battlefield. In museums, he ain't much better. I've told him, in other videos to give up coffee with caffeine. 'Cause dude your wound up tighter than an eight day clock.
Sooo he does this to get you tube patrons because he enjoys museums but can’t be professional enough to manage himself 🤷♂️
