The National Prisoner of War Museum in Andersonville, Georgia, stands as a solemn memorial to the nearly 13,000 men who perished on its grounds during the Civil War, with Andersonville National Cemetery serving as their final resting place.

Preserving the stories of American prisoners of war from the Revolutionary War to the present day, the museum offers visitors a poignant glimpse into the sacrifices made by those who suffered captivity so that others could enjoy freedom.
