“Shiloh National Military Park is excited to announce a free car caravan tour on the Shiloh Battlefield,” said Superintendent Catherine Bragaw.

Visitors are invited to join Ranger Anthony Killion on Saturday, July 27, 2024 for a three-hour guided tour of the April 1862 Battle of Shiloh. Sites to be explored on this tour include Fraley Field, Water Oaks Pond, the Peach Orchard, Jones Field, and the Hornet’s Nest, as well as others. The program will begin at 9:00 am and conclude at 12:00 pm.
