A Guided Tour of the Shiloh Battlefield
Explore Shiloh National Military Park with Dr. Tim Smith
We welcome you to hop in the car and join Dr. Timothy B. Smith for this FULL tour of Shiloh National Military Park. The video highlights the same route that visitors experience when trekking the battlefield, including famed locations such as Pittsburg Landing, Grant's Last Line of Defense, Shiloh Church and The Hornet's Nest.
There is no replacement for being able to see America's Hallowed Grounds in person, but we hope this serves as a worthy option for the virtual experience. With that being said, we encourage you to visit Shiloh in-person. Check out our Shiloh itinerary to aid in doing so!
