Montford Point Marine Museum

The museum is located on Camp Johnson and requires base access or you  must gain access to the base through the Wilson Gate visitors center. Please call to ensure you meet the base requirements before arriving at the gate.

The Museum was established to preserve the legacy of the Montford Point Marines.

The Marines of Montford Point entered the camp’s main gate as mere men of color, who had pride, courage and dedication. During the 1940s these men traveled a road that was not paved. They graduated to become Marines and brought the American people and the U.S. Marine Corps into a new era. Today many of the Marines who traveled through this groundbreaking period of American and Marine Corps history have contributed their life’s successes to the pain, sacrifices, and rewards that were earned at Montford Point.

Museum Hours: The museum is open to the public on Tuesdays to Thursdays  10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and every 2nd & 4th Saturday 10 a.m.to 3 p.m. Call (910) 554-0808 for more information.
