Machinery From The C.S.S. Nashville

These portions of rotating machinery were

removed, in 1960, from the wreck of the

Confederate blockade runner Nashville,

sunk in the Ogeechee River by shell fire from

the U.S.S. Montauk in Feb. 1863.

These relics give some conception of the

power of the Nashville's engine.

Marker is on Fort McAllister Road.
