New Military Exhibit at the Dunkirk Historical Museum
513 Washington Avenue, Dunkirk, NY 14048
The Dunkirk Historical Museum is excited to announce the opening of a new display in honor of our local Veterans. The specter of the Cold War provided an intense backdrop for the life and politics on home soil, and the public is invited to come learn about the experience of members of the U.S. Army on the inner German border in the 1970s. The display features uniforms and equipment of service members on both sides of the conflict, as well as original objects from the Fulda Gap and behind the Iron Curtain. Open to the public only from November 11th (Veterans Day) through January 8th. The Museum's main display, "That '70s Exhibit," will still be on display through the end of the year. These exhibits (and more!) can be viewed during regular open hours: MWF 9-12, W 4:30-6, and Saturday, December 5th. For special tours, please call us at 716-366-3797. Admission is FREE but donations gratefully accepted.
