I have always enjoyed going to the Battlefield and spending time walking through the park. The monuments are well kept and the grounds are well cared for. The staff are knowledgeable about the various skirmishes and full out battles that occurred here and I really enjoy their monologues.
Great and large historical parks. Plenty to do, and a lot to learn. The Visitors Centers are a must, as well as the car and walking tours. The views of Chattanooga from Point Park are very nice and gives a great perspective of why it was so important.
My review focuses on the visitor center. The rangers are friendly and knowledgeable. The movie overview provided historical context for the park, along with many of the exhibits. The highlight for civil war buffs will be the firearm collection. They do have many good examples of artillery pieces on the grounds.
Another fantastic historical site. Go to the visitor center first, talk to the guides and watch the movie. Then stay the trip. Bring your walking shoes and plan on hiking into the woods to see the real locations where action from the movie happened. Tough to take I all in one day so is you have a few days, pick a few skirmishes per day then "deep dive" into those each day. Guided tour by cell phone was not very helpful so read up on the history before going... It will make it so much more meaningful.
A fantastic Civil War historical park. Excellent visitors center with great displays and an amazing rifle collection. The video presentation sets a great tone of what happened here. I opted for a cell phone self guided tour. You drive from spot to spot and dial in the tour stop number and you listen to great explanations of events as you are standing right on the ground where it happened. Amazing and humbling.
