Default Re: Civil War tours

hi there,

Civil War tours are very popular with visitors on West Virginia vacations. The very first Civil War Battlefields West Virginia residents shed blood on was at Philippi, south of Morgantown.

On a Civil War tour you can see commemorative plaques at the Baptist Church, the Covered Bridge, the Crim Memorial Church and the local college. Commemorative events in the city often include Civil War reenactments.

Other Civil War reenactments can be see at the different battle sites such as South of Philippi and southwest of Martinsburg.

Beverly is another place popular for Civil War tours as well as north of Snowshoe which also served as Confederate headquarters for short part of the war.
