About this map

The Manassas National Battlefield Park dominates this mid-century landscape, preserving the geography of one of the Civil War's most significant conflicts. Grounded in a 1943 aerial survey and updated in the early 1950s, the map reveals the intersection of American memory and rural Virginia life. Significant historical landmarks such as the Henry House, the Stone Bridge, and the Groveton Confederate Cem are clearly marked amidst the wooded terrain of Stony Ridge and Bald Hill.
