The Civil War Era

The Civil War Era officially began in 1861, but I am including historic sites where events occurred that led to the Civil War. Exploring important sites from this era is essential for gaining a deep understanding of its history and context, as they offer valuable insights into the events, culture, and people of the time. Some places I have visited and others I have not, but I will blog about them when I do.
Ford's Theatre – Where Abraham Lincoln’s legacy lives
Fort Sumter and Fort Moultrie National Historical Park (U.S. National Park Service)
Appomattox Court House National Historical Park (U.S. National Park Service)
Manassas National Battlefield Park (U.S. National Park Service)
