Pamplin Historical Park & The National Museum of the Civil War Soldier will proclaim America’s Independence Day on July 4 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. with activities and programs.
Families will enjoy the chance to meet George Washington, hear about World War I from an American Doughboy, participate in 19th century games and take part in a ceremony concluding with a cannon fire salute. All visitors will have the opportunity to join staff for tours of the Breakthrough Battlefield which on April 2, 1865, resulted in the evacuation of both Petersburg and Richmond.
