Take a Day Trip Into History!!! Visiting the National Memorial Day Museum

A holiday meant to mourn and honor fallen soldiers has turned into a way to ring in summer each year. This holiday, of course, is Memorial Day.

The holiday of Memorial Day began after the Civil War as a way to honor the 750,000 lives lost to the war.

It has turned into a day to remember all those who have served and lost their lives since that conflict ended over 150 years ago.

The entrance hall alone makes the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City a worthwhile visit.

With its soaring ceilings and marble floors, Kirkwood Hall is a work of architectural grandeur. Stately Corinthian columns topped with gilded acanthus crowns line the room. Tapestries depicting scenes from Greek mythology by Flemish artist Jan Leyniers adorn the limestone walls.
