Arranged in chronological order, the permanent artifacts at the Citadel Museum cover the military academy's history from its founding in 1842 to its involvement in modern military operations around the globe. You'll learn about all aspects of cadet life here: where the students live, what classes they take, how they exercise and socialize. Historical photographs, uniforms, weapons and medals number among the items displayed. In the foyer, check out the exhibit of Citadel rings from 1895 to present, and leaf through the photograph albums honoring Citadel men who lost their lives in military conflicts beginning with World War II.

- Museums: "While you're at the museum, pick up a campus walking-tour brochure and check out some of the high points: the Gothic-style Summerall Chapel, the Thomas Dry Howie Carillon Tower, and the grave of General Mark W. Clark (former Citadel president and WWII commander)."
