We all know someone who is serving or has served in the military. Whether it is a friend, brother, sister, uncle, aunt, or parent, we feel a debt of gratitude for their unwavering commitment to our country. In West Virginia, there is a lesser-known but fantastic military museum that gives a glimpse into the past service of Mountaineers and it’s definitely worthy of a visit.

The Mountaineer Military Museum in Weston is one of the best small town museums of its kind in the United States. While the museum is small in size, it loaded with artifacts, exhibits, and tributes.
