Museums
Helena Museum of Phillips County
A local history museum with Civil War artifacts from the Battle of Helena and exhibits on the region.
The Helena Museum of Phillips County keeps and explains the history of Phillips County and the Arkansas Delta. Its collection includes Civil War artifacts, most of them from the Battle of Helena on July 4, 1863. That Union victory was a key step in controlling the Mississippi River.
Exhibits cover the region's Native American history, the steamboat era on the river, the Delta's farming history and two centuries of the town's growth. Rotating exhibits look at other parts of local history and culture.
The museum is in downtown Helena. It gives useful background for the rest of a visit, including Battery C.
