ABSOLUTELY an amazing collection of Confederate artifacts. It was definitely worth the trip. I couldve stayed there all day just looking and reading the individual display stories. Totally loved it. You REALLY REALLY NEED TO SEE THIS STUFF JUST AMAZING!!

Very interesting! Nice tour and lots of history.

Very educational museum. Its good to learn about the Confederacy because it is an important part of our history. The museum is pretty quick if you skim through everything but if you read everything thoroughly then it could take longer

Neat building, be sure to look for the etchings on the pillar bases outside from union soldiers after taking Vicksburg

Pretty neat museum. The architecture and the history is definitely worth the time. It cost me $5 admission.

An amazing museum full of artifacts and historical knowledge! My dad and I enjoyed our visit there very much!

Truly a wonderful museum! The staff were friendly and helpful, and the amount of history held in the courthouse is incredible. Admission is $5.00 for adults, and well-worth it. The gift shop was also reasonably priced, containing a hefty amount of Civil War artifacts. I would highly recommend stopping here for anyone who enjoys history.

Was not open, but grounds are beautiful! Worth a walk through the gardens.

The two ladies working there Sunday were so cordial yet professional, made our visit a real pleasure! And this museum is one of my all time favorites for certain.Highly recommended indeed.

Im torn about this review. The building and collection are super cool. I love the story about how the woman who founded it fought the county about them tearing the building down until they gave her the keys. But even this far south in a charming small town, in 2019, I cant get behind a museum that says Jeff Daviss slaves loved him and also that the bad Union soldiers who came South kidnapped the slaves away from their owners against their will. They need to update their interpretation.

Must see if visiting the Vicksburg Battlefield/Historic Vicksburg. Battlefield National Park “museum” itself has nothing (1 small room with a few little artifacts). Old Court house has SO many artifacts and displays, and really helps provide lots of information and understanding in the history for both the Seige and the town. You really cannot get the big picture without going to the Old Courthouse.

Fantastic. Great historical items.

Went back to visit again. Not my usual type of museum but love all of the history, artifacts, and employees willing to help and answe questions.

Very Enlightening of 1800s

The Old Warren County Court House, built in 1858, stands today as Vicksburg’s most historic structure and has hosted such guests and speakers as Jefferson Davis, Ulysses S. Grant, Booker T. Washington, Teddy Roosevelt, and William McKinley. During the Civil War, the building was one of the main targets in Vicksburg. As hard as the Union tried, the building suffered only one major hit. After a 47-day siege, on July 4, 1863, the Stars and Bars were lowered and the Stars and Stripes were raised.

Fantastic Civil War display with a great deal of Vicksburg history. Several other rooms in the old courthouse museum filled with interesting history. Nice gift shop. I purchased a small display box filled with civil war metal objects. The staff took the time to give me a great description of each item. Highly recommend a visit! As a student of history, I can tell you that every generation looks at the past through its own Kaleidoscope. Its important to preserve all history for future generations. Thank you to the Old Court House Museum for your commitment to this effort!

You would probably have to go to Virginia or Gettysburg to find such a concentration of so many civil war artifacts. Many items on Jefferson Davis and his presidency. The courthouse itself is the best artifact to see. I was truly blown away. A must see if you are visiting. Staff is also great. I will definitely be back

Wonderful place. Well kept and maintained. Fairly exhaustive collection of regional artifacts.

An old courthouse packed with history and historical items!

Rich with history and antiques. Definitely a place to visit in Vicksburg

An amazing amount of history and a beautiful building. Definitely worth the time.

Great place to visit for confederate memoribilia and definitely learnt a lot. I see a lot of people saying staff were friendly but i dont think we got the same treatment because we were brown and staff probably didnt think we would like the stuff we saw. Well they were wrong. It was super interesting. Dont be scared of guiding us non white folks through your museum homies! I didnt agree with the whole Jefferson Davies slaves and him were bestest buddies routine (you give it a go) but it would have been the propaganda at the time and thats why i think this museum is so interesting. I could not help but think what if the confederates won the war. Would there be a union museum somewhere in New York State? All the best everyone and be kind always no matter what.

This is a wonderful tribute to the past. All the information and areafacts are incredible! A must go place.

Wonderful historical place that really walks you through our southern history! Highly recommend

This place is packed with history! The staff are really nice. Must see!

Lots of collected artifacts, but offensive exhibits. For example, this quote (reportedly from one of Jefferson Davis former slaves): Every colored man he ever owned loved him, and There was a special relationship between Jefferson Davis and his slaves. He was not only their master, but also their friend. Museum evidently is maintained by descendants, in defense of their ancestors.

Great place to for history buffs to visit.

Beautiful place, needs some repairs

A truly fascinating museum.

Beautiful place!
