The National Infantry Museum houses one of the most significant<br />
collections of military artifacts in existence. The new $100 million museum<br />
is located just off Main Post on South Lumpkin Road.<br />
In The Columbus Area<br />
During your visit to Ft. <strong>Benning</strong>, we invite you to come downtown. Walk<br />
along the Chattahoochee RiverWalk, a 15-mile linear park, drop by the<br />
Columbus Museum for a breathtaking experience, or step back in time at<br />
The National Civil War Naval Museum at Port Columbus...The only museum<br />
in the nation to recount the Civil War from both the Union and Confederate<br />
Navies perspectives. From barbecue to banjos from Bach to bluegrass,<br />
that's "what progress has preserved."<br />
Columbus is a real Southern town where residents<br />
still drawl and say "ma'am." A town with fascinating<br />
history at every turn. Located on the banks of the<br />
Chattahoochee River, it was planned in the early<br />
1800's, and much of its history has been preserved.<br />
It's also a busy Industrial center that speaks the<br />
new language of a multicultural society and global<br />
economy.<br />
