A Civil War museum that has won a number of US and international awards and recognition, the museum is Duty Called Me Here as well as The Civil War Store, The Pamplin Board Room, and the Remembrance Wall. Duty Called Me Here is an exhibit that comprises seven galleries to allow to visitors to meet the 3 million soldiers who served during the Civil War using videos, computers and life-size dioramas, including the multi-sensory battlefield simulation, "Trial By Fire," designed originally by award-winning experience designer Bob Rogers (designer) and the design team BRC Imagination Arts.
