About 10th Mountain Division & Fort Drum Museum

Run from Fort Drum in northern New York, this museum traces the history of the 10th Mountain Division and the installation. Its exhibits begin with the Indigenous peoples of the region, move through the Army's arrival in the North Country and the growth of the post, and then follow the division from its origins in Colorado mountains and its wartime service in Italy to its later deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan. Visitors need no ID to enter. The museum also offers group tours, hosts small ceremonies, lends period uniforms for official functions, and supports historical research.
