Civil War Bus Tour: History in Brass and Stone––Remembering Knoxville’s Military Heritage

The McClung Museum of Natural History and Culture will host History in Brass and Stone: Remembering Knoxville’s Military Heritage, a special Veterans Day themed version of our popular Civil War bus tours. Attendees will observe how the ‘Volunteer’ legacy of military sacrifice is memorialized in now quiet, obscure locations all around Knoxville.

The tour – which runs from 2:00 to 4:00 pm on Sunday, November 11 – will be led by the museum’s Curator of Civil War history, Dr. Joan Markel. Markel is a local lecturer, teacher and the author of Knoxville in the Civil War. The bus tour will include wine, snacks, and the two hour tour. There will be a ticket fee, a portion of which will be applied as a donation to McClung Museum. Non-member tickets will include a one year membership to the museum.

Many thanks to Laura B. Powers, MD and John M. Burkhart, MD for their generous sponsorship of the tour.
