Reviews
"The museum is closed for renovations but you can see an absolutely spectacular movie telling the story of the Battle of Shiloh. The grounds are open and fantastic!"
"The self-guided tour in the NPS app is great to listen to along with reading the more than 20 tour stop signs. It can be done without even leaving your vehicle. But for those ready for a small stop, the self-guided tour and point you to where walk and see the sites yourself."
"This is hallowed round. What a breathtaking experience remembering such brave souls that died here. This history reminds us of what we should never embark upon again. I was honored to visit this place and look forward to passing this history on. I hope others that visit here experience this same memory as well."
"Loved driving through and listening to the stories. It was raining and cold but we could stay in the car and still enjoy it. Went to the bookstore and found a couple of books. We didn't have time to watch the movie, but we will plan on it next time."
"My favorite NPS historical park. Always well maintained. They have bathrooms new thus year around the park. The visitor center movie is well done."
