Southern Museum of Civil War and Locomotive History

The Southern Museum of Civil War and Locomotive History is a museum in Kennesaw, Georgia, that contains a collection of artifacts and relics from the American Civil War, as well as from railroads of the state of Georgia and surrounding regions.

The archives house a significant collection of company records, engineering drawings, blueprints, glass plate negatives, photographs and correspondence from various American businesses representing the railroad industry in the South after the Civil War.

The archives also contain a growing collection of Civil War letters, diaries, and official records.

Later, the theme expanded to include Civil War pieces as well.In the mid- to late 1990, the property of the former Glover Machine Works was to be demolished.

With the acquisition of the rather large collection of artifacts, the museum closed in late 2001 and began a massive expansion to house them.
