The Yorktown Victory Center is the state owned and operated museum commemorating Washington's defeat of Cornwallis at Yorktown which led to the end of the Revolutionary War. There are a variety of exhibits inside while outside they do exhibitions on how to load and fire muskets and depict typical life at the time of the revolution on a small farm.
The battlefield is also maintained and presented in museum fashion nearby.

Wonderful pictures. I was just complaining to myself how cold I am and ow I wish it was warmer when I say the picture of the house. No more complaints from me...Oh how cold it must have been in there! Wishing you a warm and cozy weekend! Cathy
My wife and I are both history buffs and visited here often. As a matter of fact one of the first photos of the two of us (way back in the early 80s) was made on the battlefield with a cannon as a backdrop!
