Fifth Maine curator, Kim MacIsaac, looks at how the soldiers and their families dealt with death and loss
on the battlefield and at home both during and after the war.
A Civil War Memorial & Cultural Center
The Fifth Maine Regiment Memorial Hall was built in 1888 as the "Headquarters" of the Fifth Regiment Maine Volunteer Infantry 1861-1864. For nearly sixty years the veterans and their families summered here, enjoying the cooling ocean breezes and magnificent view from the verandah of their beloved cottage. Under the stewardship of the Fifth Maine Regiment Community Association, the Hall is maintained as a Civil War and local history museum and a cultural center for our island community. We hope you enjoy your visit to our web site.
