Historic Blakeley State Park encompasses over 2,100 acres of the largest National Register Historic Site in the eastern half of the United States. Within the park’s grounds are the site of the last major battle of the Civil War, including several miles of unspoiled Confederate and Union fortifications associated with the Battle of Fort Blakeley of April 9, 1865; the site and remnants of the important early Alabama town of Blakeley; colonial era homesteads, and evidence of American Indian habitation from the Archaic, Woodland, Mississippian, and Historic periods. The park is situated in one of the most ecologically diverse sections of Alabama, and works to preserve its natural setting as a unique wildlife preserve.
