NEW  Henry Hill: First Manassas (Bull Run)

This July 21, 1861, battle was the first big fight of the war, giving the country a taste of what was to come.
This walking tour covers the intense fighting on Henry Hill where the tide of the battle turned from Union success to a decisive Confederate victory. The fighting on the hill was marked by charges and counter charges, often ending in hand-to-hand fighting.
One of the Confederate leaders on Henry Hill was Gen. Thomas J. Jackson, who would become "Stonewall" that day. This tour begins just outside the Manassas National Battlefield Park visitor center. Park fees apply.
