In addition to the publicly accessible collection, the museum’s archives hold over 100,000 diverse historical artifacts for preservation and future displays, making it one of the foremost military history institutions in the world.

The National Infantry Museum’s primary focus is educating the public on the role of the U.S. Army Infantryman in securing the freedoms we all enjoy. The museum’s Education Department can help make the most of your visit through guided tours, educational materials, and public events designed to bring history alive in an unforgettable way. From classroom-based instruction to living history demonstrations, we can tailor your group’s interests to enhance the impact of the interactive exhibits at the museum. Our team of dedicated historians and educators have created several tour packages for students of all ages, JROTC groups, active-duty Servicemembers, Boy & Girl Scouts, homeschoolers, churches, and reunions.

School tours are designed based on the current curriculum standards of Georgia and Alabama. Each year, hundreds of students throughout the Southeast make field trips to the National Infantry Museum. The museum’s Education Department can customize a guided tour to complement your classroom lessons and activities.
