2019 Map of Pittsburg Landing

About this map

Shiloh National Battlefield dominates the southwestern portion of this map, preserving the sacred ground along the Tennessee River where a pivotal Civil War conflict occurred. This modern survey illustrates the proximity of the battlefield to several long-standing cemeteries, including the Shiloh National Cemetery and Shiloh Cemetery, alongside family landmarks like Rouse Cemetery and Phillips Cemetery. The landscape is defined by the massive reach of Kentucky Lake and the river's winding course, which creates a complex network of wetlands and islands such as Diamond Island and Wolf Island. Nearby, the city of Savannah sits on the eastern bank, connected to the western communities of Crump and Adamsville by a transportation network that navigates the intricate hydrology of Snake Creek Canal and various sloughs. The settlement pattern here remains closely tied to the historic river crossings and the preserved memorial landscape of Hardin County.
