If you are taking your class to the battlefield for a self-guiding experience, be sure to stop in our visitor center and view the museum and nine-minute orientation film. School groups may borrow a copy of our self-guiding audio tour from the bookstore free of charge.

A picnic area is available on a first come - first serve basis and is located directly across the parking lot from the visitor center.

Even if you are not requesting ranger programs, we ask that you still contact us to schedule your visit.
