Smithsonian Institute

The Smithsonian Institute is a complex of museums in Washington, D.C. which holds many items concerning Disney. As the home of the Devil's Eye in The Rescuers, the Smithsonian also made a brief appearance at the very beginning of Atlantis: The Lost Empire as Milo Thatch's workplace. In Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Steve visits an exhibit about himself at the National Museum of American History.
