Dover, Tennessee— Fort Donelson National Battlefield is closed today, Thursday, February 11, due to icy conditions.
This closure is for the units of Fort Donelson National Battlefield in Stewart County, Tennessee, and the Fort Heiman Unit in Calloway County, Kentucky.
The area has been under an Ice Storm Warning since last evening and has resulted in ice accumulation and increasingly hazardous road conditions. With dropping temperatures and continued precipitation, additional icing is expected.
Road conditions and safety for park access will continue to be assessed, and updates posted on the park webpage www.nps.gov/fodo and on its Facebook page www.facebook.com/fortdonelsonnps
