THE LATEST EVENTS, EXHIBITS & HOURS OF THE ELMIRA NY CIVIL WAR PRISON CAMP.

Most students of Civil War history have heard very little of months when the town of Elmira in upstate New York was the site of a prisoner of war camp. Friends of Elmira Civil War Prison Camp organize Events and Exhibits throughout the year to educate and inform.
