6th Cavalry Museum

About

The 6th Cavalry Museum is a military history museum that was located in Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia. The museum was dedicated to the 6th Cavalry Regiment, a regiment of the United States Army that began as a regiment of cavalry in the American Civil War, and is still active today. The museum focused on those who served at the U.S. Army Post at Fort Oglethorpe from 1902 to 1946. The museum was established in 1981 by veterans who served in the cavalry and closed to the public in 2023. The artifacts from the 6th Cavalry Museum are now stored and displayed at the Fort Oglethorpe Welcome Center at 10 Barnhardt Circle in Fort Oglethorpe.
