Bloody battles and trenches |
3215 East Broad Street Richmond, VA 23223 United States +1 804 226 1981 http://www.nps.gov/rich/ |
The grim site of Chimborazo, one of the Confederacy's largest hospitals, begins a tour of the Civil War battlefields of Richmond. A map obtained here will lead you to the sites of the Battles of Chickahominy Bluff, Beaver Dam Creek, and many more. The bloodiest battle of all was at Cold Harbor. The losses here were greater than those at Gettysburg when time is figured in; 16,000 men were lost, 8,000 in one hour. Admission is free. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Civil War artillery factory |
5th & Tredegar Sts Richmond, VA 23223 United States +1 804 771 2145 http://www.nps.gov/rich/ |
Situated on the James River, the Tredegar Iron Works, already a thriving factory, produced much of the guns, ammunition and warship armor needed by the Confederate army. For the duration of the war, operations continued nonstop to supply the southern troops. When the war was lost in 1865, Tredegar was instrumental in helping to rebuild the South and stayed in business until the 1950s. Tredgar is operated by the National Park Service and is part of the Richmond National Battlefield Park system. Visitors can take a self-guided tour through the ruins and learn of the importance of this strategic city in the Civil War. Review © 2007, Wcities |
