Military Park Welcome Center


Visitors Center


A young man of special note.
His name is Bill Buckus from
Connecticut majoring in historical
preservation in Virgina.
You will find reenactors in the
welcome center posing as figures
in the exhibits between canon fires.
When you walk up to the exhibit
they will start talking as one of the
characters telling you about what
is going on at that paticular scene.
So watch out! You never know which
of the figures you see are real.

Arch leading to the tour road.
The road is just over 16 miles long.
Not all of the battlefield is located
in the park the city grew into it and
several of the monuments can be found
in peoples yards and on street islands.
