Remembered Trail

What is a Battlefield Park? How does a nation commemorate and remember its history? During this walk you will discover how veterans, the military, citizens, and the National Park Service created and preserved the tangible reminders of the Battle of Antietam for over 140 years. The paved, quarter-mile trail starts and ends at the visitor center. It will take you past some significant landmarks and monuments that help tell the story of the battle and the evolution of this national park.
