Review:
Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park preserves the site of the seminal 1864 Battle of Kennesaw Mountain, one of Georgia's most prominent American Civil War battles. The park, which is located near the cities of Kennesaw and Marietta, is located within easy driving distance of metro Atlanta and stretches over nearly 3,000 acres, preserving three key battlefield areas from the battle. Three monuments are also located on the park's grounds, honoring soldiers who fought in the battle from Texas, Georgia, and Illinois. A preserved historic farmhouse can be explored throughout the year for free, while a visitor center offers a small museum of Civil War-related exhibits. Over 17 miles of hiking trails are open to the public, offering informational displays about the park's connection to area history.
