Learn all about the military history of Arizona.
The Arizona National Guard Historical Society operates the Arizona Military Museum. This place has been around since the fall of 1981, and it covers everything from the Spanish Conquistadors, the American Civil War, the Indian and Spanish-American Wars, both World Wars, Korean, Vietnam, Desert Storm, and Operation Iraqi Freedom. The collection includes displays of uniforms, vehicles, artillery, mementos, and many other interesting items and military artifacts.
The museum's building is also a significant part of Arizona's military history. It is an adobe building first constructed in 1936 as a Depression-era public works project. It was used as a National Guard arsenal until World War II. The building was also used as a maintenance shop for German prisoners of war. Guests of all ages are welcome to stop by, but history buffs especially will enjoy spending time at this museum.
