Civil War Days
May 19-20, 2012
Another Civil War Days weekend has come and gone! We hope you we're able to come watch the battle, visit the field camps, and meet the soldiers and President Lincoln. Please visit our Civil War Days Flickr photostream to see the images from 2011 and we'll see you next May for Civil War Days.
To learn more about the Civil War, April through October, please visit our newest historic area: 1863 Civil War Journey: Raid on Indiana. This interactive experience puts you right in the middle of Indiana's brush with the Civil War, when General John Hunt Morgan's raiders stormed through Dupont, Indiana. Volunteer to help your fellow citizens defend your home and learn how women and children supported the troops. The River Crossing Play Area includes fun activities for young children, including Civil War dress-up and a water play area. (The water play area is open Memorial Day-Labor Day.)
