Tennessee Civil War National Heritage Area
FY 2010 Annual Report


The Tennessee Civil War National Heritage Area tells the whole story of America’s greatest challenge, 1860-1875 – powerful stories of vicious warfare, the demands of the homefront and occupation, the freedom of emancipation, and legacies of Reconstruction.

We provide leadership to organizations across Tennessee, supporting education, interpretation, preservation, and economic development. Leveraging federal, state, local, and private funding, we empower communities and individuals to serve as good stewards of their historic places and stories. Through our projects, we work with communities and property owners to build new, stronger alliances for heritage development and battlefield preservation.

Encompassing the entire state of Tennessee, the Heritage Area is a partnership unit of the National Park Service and is administered by the Center for Historic Preservation at Middle Tennessee State University.
