As World War II raged across the globe, Americans on the home front played a critical role in supporting the war effort. From tending Victory Gardens to working in factories that produced the tools of war, civilians made it possible for the American military to fight overseas.

This FREE Outpost program offers visitors an opportunity to learn about life on the American home front during World War II. Guests can explore real artifacts while gaining insight into daily life, wartime work, and the sacrifices made by those who supported the war from home.

Outpost programs are educational, drop-in experiences held on select Saturdays on the Nimitz Platz at 340 E Main St, Fredericksburg, TX 78624. Visitors of all ages are welcome to stop by, ask questions, and engage directly with history.
