Where
257 Cadets from the Virginia Military Institute made the difference between victory and defeat... Your exploration of the Civil War in Virginia begins here in the legendary Shenandoah Valley. The three-hundred acre New Market Battlefield State Historical Park, 19th Century Bushong Farm, and Hall of Valor Civil War Museum, commemorate a unique moment in American history--- when college boys, Cadets from VMI, engaged in pitched battle and helped win a victory for the Confederate Army. Spend the day at the New Market Battlefield State Historical
Park and enjoy the museum, explore the historic farm, scenic
Shenandoah River overlooks, picnic spots and walking trails.
The park, a National Historic Landmark, is open 9-5 Daily,
year round (closed Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New
Year's Day).
