The Citadel
The Citadel's military college campus offers a different Charleston experience from the historic downtown streets. A scheduled cadet parade gives the clearest public view of its traditions.

The Corps of Cadets brings the college's military identity into view on Summerall Field. The campus also has Summerall Chapel and The Citadel Museum for visitors interested in its institutional history. A parade is the most distinctive reason to make the trip, but its dates depend on the academic calendar.

Useful to know
Check the parade calendar before making a trip specifically to see the cadets.
