The Project
Berlin Civil War Heroes Project
Our goal is to create an Interactive and Immersive Museum Exhibit at The Worthington Ridge Meeting House in Berlin Connecticut.
Built in 1774, the Meeting House is one of the oldest standing structure in Berlin. The building was once Town Hall, a Meeting House, a Church and a School. The Berlin Historical Society seeks to restore the building and relocate the museum there.
The Exhibit
The Interactive and Immersive Exhibit will showcase:
- Berlin's brave soldiers of The 29th Connecticut Colored Troop Regiment
- The town's Rich Abolitionist History
- Berlin's Wide Awakes Lantern and the town's role in the 1860 movement
Our goal is to raise $250,000 to create the exhibit
We welcome Donations!
