The Civil War remains the bloodiest conflict in American history. Follow the events as they unfold — from the firing on Fort Sumter, to the single bloodiest day at Antietam, to the Confederate surrenders at Appomattox Court House and Bennett Place. Our collection of animated maps bring battles of the American Civil War to life, complete with troop movement animations, narratives, reenactment footage and more.
The American Battlefield Trust's Animated Battle Map Collection tells the story of America’s defining conflicts through compelling story telling, state of the art graphics and live action video.
