Welcome

WE ARE OPEN!  We welcome you all – we’ve worked on many things and the new outside display is now open. 
Please come in and look around.
Located in Topeka, Kansas, the Museum is dedicated to preserving the heritage of the Kansas National Guard and honoring the memories of the Soldiers and Airmen who, for over 160 years, have served Kansas and the United States whenever the call was made.
We invite you to share in the rich history of Kansas and her volunteers who, for over a century and a half, have done their best to bring freedom to people across the world. Visit the Museum of the Kansas National Guard which serves as our guardian, tasked with the never-ending mission of remembering and honoring our soldiers and airmen, who have given, and will continue to give, their time and lives for causes greater than themselves.
