Our exhibits and collections offer an educational and meaningful experience, best shared with others. Advance booking is available for groups, securing preferred date and time, and taking advantage of group rate pricing.
The National Civil War Museum receives Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program (EITC) from generous corporations to subsidize field trips and transportation costs for Pennsylvania Public and Charter School students. Please speak with our Education Department for more details and availability of funds. This program is administered on a first come, first served basis, so book your trips to the museum early.

Plan a Field Trip
Bring your students to The National Civil War Museum to enhance their study of the Civil War and its legacy. Your students will learn about the causes of the war, the battles and the people who fought them, and the legacy of the war that still affects us today. They will tour our exhibitions in groups and participate in a scavenger hunt activity designed to keep them engaged and on-task. Additionally, we offer hands-on educational presentations that align with Pennsylvania (SAS) and Common Core Standards. Every presentation can be customized to suit students of all ages and ability levels. Contact Dane DiFebo to schedule your tour at 717-260-9575.
