A sprawling battlefield that continues to add more acreage to the park, see the site of Jackson's flank attack and where he was wounded.

My husband and I visited recently and were pleasantly surprised at how well put together the visitor center was! The visitor center seems to lead one on a journey to learn the unfolding of the battle, and the personal stories of the people involved, North and South, soldier, civilians, doctors. We found the stories fascinating and sobering and felt the heaviness of what happened there. There were many artifacts and some audio buttons you could push to hear narrations or short films. Pace yourself to save time for the grand finale-a room with walls covered in large photographs of soldiers who fought there and beneath them the seemingly endless names of men who died there. There are also nice trails and paths to walk with markers showing where Stonewall Jackson was mortally wounded, some Confederate trenches and other interesting sites. Both The Wilderness Battlefield and Chancellorsville are near Culpeper on Route 3. If you love history or feel the need to learn about our past struggles as a nation, it is worth going to see these.
