    Stones River National Battlefield is hosting its annual artillery encampment and battery firing programs on Saturday and Sunday, July 19-20. Cannons and crews from several states will assemble on the battlefield to tell the story of the artillery at the Battle of Stones River and demonstrate the firing of Civil War cannon. The physical and psychological impact of artillery played a critical in the Union victory at Stones River. Union artillery batteries stopped Confederate attacks at the most crucial moments of the fight.

    The battery camp will be open to the public during each day, and visitors are encouraged to join the soldiers and ask them questions about life in the Union army. Program times subject to change due to weather conditions.

    See the Program Schedule for the full listing of events for the Artillery Battery Programs.
