About H. L. Hunley

Visitors can tour the Warren Lasch Conservation Center, where the Confederate submarine H. L. Hunley is preserved and displayed alongside artifacts recovered from her crew compartment. The site presents the vessel's Civil War history, the science used to clean and stabilize her iron hull, and the facial reconstructions made of her crew. Weekend tours run on set hours, while weekday tours are generally limited to pre-arranged private groups and school visits so that the scientists can keep working.
