Civil War Sites in Mississippi<\/h1>\r\n

History buffs of all ages can have a field day during their stay in the Magnolia State. Mississippi’s Civil War history is woven into the fabric of America, so it’s only natural that many of the battlefields and buildings left standing have been turned into historical sites and attractions<\/a> that many continue to visit to this day. Take in the historic architecture<\/a> throughout Mississippi, as there are still many buildings left standing from when Mississippi first joined the Union. Every building built in the 19th<\/sup> century is a testament to the master craftsmanship of the original builders and architects. No matter where your journey through Mississippi takes you, buildings and history museums<\/a> that are central to the story of the nation are never far away.<\/p>\r\n
