CSS Muscogee

This article is about the ironclad ram that operated on the Chattahoochee River. For the converted tugboat named CSS Jackson that operated on the Mississippi River, see CSS Jackson.

CSS Muscogee also known as CSS Jackson was a Confederate States Navy ironclad ram, powered by a steam driven screw and deployed on the Chattahoochee River during the American Civil War.

She was built at Columbus, Georgia, and launched in December 1864. In April 1865, the still incomplete CSS Muscogee (or CSS Jackson, as she was also called) was captured and burned by Union Army forces. Her remains were recovered during the 1960s from the portion of the river inside the boundaries of Fort Benning and placed on exhibit at the National Civil War Naval Museum in Columbus.
