The Bermuda National Trust Museum

This was once the Globe Hotel, headquarters of Major Norman Walker, the Confederate representative in Bermuda. Today, it houses relics from the island's involvement in the American Civil War -- from a Bermudian perspective. St. George was the port from which ships carrying arms and munitions ran the Union blockade. A replica of the Great Seal of the Confederacy is fitted to a Victorian press so that visitors can emboss copies as souvenirs. There's also a video presentation, Bermuda: Centre of the Atlantic, tracing the island's early history.

Open: Mon-Sat 10am-4pm.Admission $4 adults, $2 children 6-18; free for children under 6.Closed Dec 25.
