Overview
The National Museum of Civil War Medicine in downtown Frederick tells the story of doctors, nurses, and patients in the war through three floors of dioramas, personal stories, and medical instruments in a 19th-century building that was once a furniture store and funeral parlor, with topics such as battlefield surgery and evacuation.
