The James A. Ramage Civil War Museum seeks to tell the untold story of Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky's involvement in the American Civil War. Although no battles occurred there, the people of the area resisted a push by the Confederate army in 1862. The museum is located on the site of Hooper Battery. The museum grounds cover 17 acres (69,000 m2) and it displays historical passages, stories, and memorabilia. It also pays homage to the Black Brigade of Cincinnati, Fern Storer's kitchen, and the history of Fort Wright.
