Fort Negley Park was constructed by the Union during the Civil War after the troops captured the city of Nashville, located around two miles for the present-day city center. The fortification was the largest of the inland forts built in the country during the Civil War.
The Visitors Center at the Fort Negley Park is an outdoor recreation and historical education center that explores the relationship between the Federal Government and Nashville throughout the Civil War, as well as the relevance of Fort Negley during the twentieth century and beyond. The park offers self-guided tours with informational panels located on paved paths.
