Bombproof Casements
The casements, or bombproofs were originally designed to serve as soldiers´ barracks in the event of an enemy bombardment. During the Civil War, these rooms held
over 200 prisoners of war from the Confederate Army and lawbreakers from the Union side.
Some of these casements were used for storage of ammunition. The
largest casement has an oven and tables and benches and was presumably used dining.
During the Civil War the casement would have been fitted out with double decker bunk beds to house prisoners.
Officers Quarters
Officers and their families lived in this building, with the exception of the commandant. The conditions were not nearly as crowded as those found in the Soldiers´ Barracks.
We
are posting the first few photos now. More info about this case will
be posted shortly.
