Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Civil War historians and casual visitors alike will appreciate a trip to Vicksburg National Military Park, not only because of the deep history of the region, but also due to the beautiful surrounding landscape and sweeping vistas.

Vicksburg was key to the Confederate Army’s defensive position, and was held for a total of 47 days against the Union siege.

The modern military park is home to reenactments of the battle, memorials for fallen soldiers, and museums that tell a full story of the local, and national, history of the area.
