Organ of Muskets - National Parks Gallery
Summary
The Organ of Muskets is a highlight of our museum. Named after a poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, the Organ of Muskets consists of 647 Model 1861 Rifle Muskets. This structure would have held 1100 muskets when fully stocked and would have been one of many that filled the Arsenal during the Civil War.
