Richmond Civil War exhibits



On Monday evening, after our GPS tours with the O&M instructors, we hooked up with some guide dog instructors in search of Civil War history exhibits.

Mike and Lukas Frank reading the Civil War quotes
Just south of our hotel on 5th Street, we found a long pedestrian bridge with Civil War quotes written on the flooring about every 6 feet. Lukas Frank read me all the quotes. I should have captured them on the POI I set for that bridge over the James River. We did grab a photo.

From there, we found another long pedestrian bridge that took us to Belle Isle where the Yankee prisoners were kept captive. There are quite a few monuments and plaques in the area. Definitely worth exploring another time.
