Small but engaging museum offering special programs and events. Allow yourself 1.5 hours to tour this museum. Admission is free with accepted donations. CLOSED Monday. https://www.afroamcivilwar.org/about-us/visitors-and-groups.html From their webpage: The African American Civil War Memorial Freedom Foundation was incorporated in 1992 to tell the largely unknown story of the United States Colored Troops (USCT). As a tribute to these soldiers, the African American Civil War Memorial was dedicated in July of 1998 under the leadership of Dr. Frank Smith Jr., and Colin Powell. In honor of these American soldiers who fought for freedom during the American Civil War, the Spirit of Freedom: African American Civil War Memorial sculpture and its Wall of Honor, was situated in the heart of the historic “U” Street district, and serves as a reminder of the courageous story of the USCT. The sculpture portrays uniformed soldiers and a sailor at a height of ten feet with a family depicted on the back of the sculpture, and is situated in the center of a granite-paved plaza, encircled on three sides by the Wall of Honor. The wall lists the names of 209,145 USCT drawn from the official records of the Bureau of United States Colored Troops at the National Archives, on 166 burnished stainless steel plaques arranged by regiment.

Gorgeous historic mansion renamed, Belmont-Paul Women's Equality National Monument in 2016 by President Obama. Previously known as the Sewall-Belmont House, the building became the home of the National Woman's Party in 1929. From that base, members of the party authored hundreds of pieces of legislation in pursuit of women's equality. The new monument is named for Alva Belmont and Alice Paul, a major benefactor and leader of the movement respectively. "This house has a story to tell; this is the story of the national women's party whose members fought to have their voices heard," Obama said. The NWP became an educational organization in 1997, turning the house at 2nd and Constitution Avenue in Southeast into a museum where they continue to teach about the movement's unfinished work.

America’s story lives here! Before there was Washington, there was Georgetown, then and now, a center for society and politics. In 1805, on 8½ acres purchased with a bequest from George Washington, Martha Washington’s granddaughter and her husband envisioned the estate that would become Tudor Place Historic House & Garden, home to six generations of their descendants and now an extraordinary museum. On hourly guided tours, see the Thornton-designed Neoclassical house and collection – including decorative arts, domestic objects, and rare items from Washington’s Mount Vernon; on self-guided garden tours, enjoy gravel paths and expansive lawns, the woodsy Dell, and numerous garden “rooms” that reflect the land’s evolution from urban farmstead to the recreational oasis it is today. http://www.tudorplace.org/
