点评:A huge contrast between the natural beauty of the area and the nightmarish battle that took place here. Huge number of casualties in such a small amount of space.
This is one of the two battles Lee fought in the North. While this battle wasn’t a decisive Union victory, it certainly wasn’t a Confederate victory. After the Union beat the Confederates in a tactical victory, Lincoln was able to issue the emancipation proclamation. This battle also allowed Lincoln to finally dismiss the incompetent McClelland.
Auto tour is well marked and consists of ten stops. Download the NPS app, go to Antietam, then download the auto tour under “self guided tours.” $20 admission per vehicle, which you pay at the visitors center.
Only disappointment was the visitors center. Small museum has removed all the artifacts because of flooding. Movie in theater was one of the worst National Park service battlefield
Movies I have seen. Movie doesn’t even talk about how the union had Lee’s battle plans. Then, doesn’t talk about how McClelland let Lee escape after the battle and wasn’t aggressive enough after breakthroughs during the battle.
To fully see everything, takes about 4 hours. This would include the visitors center, going on the auto tour, and doing some short walks at the sunken road, observation tower, and Burnside’s bridge.
翻译:这片区域的自然美景与这里曾经发生的惨烈战役形成了鲜明的对比。如此小的面积却造成了如此巨大的伤亡。
这是李将军在北方参与的两场战役之一。虽然这场战役并非联邦的决定性胜利,但南方邦联也并未取得胜利。联邦军在战术上击败南方邦联后,林肯得以颁布解放奴隶宣言。这场战役也让林肯最终得以解职无能的麦克莱兰将军。
自驾游览路线标识清晰,共设有十个站点。下载国家公园管理局 (NPS) 应用程序,进入安提耶坦 (Antietam) 页面,然后在“自助游览”下下载自驾游览路线。每辆车需支付 20 美元门票,在游客中心支付。
唯一令人失望的是游客中心。由于洪水,小型博物馆的所有文物都被移走了。影院里播放的关于安提耶坦的影片是我看过的最糟糕的国家公园管理局出品的战场电影之一。
影片甚至没有提及联邦军是如何掌握李将军的作战计划的。然后,它没有提及麦克莱兰在战后放走了李将军,也没有提及他在战役中取得突破后不够积极主动。
要完整参观所有景点,大约需要4个小时。这包括参观游客中心、自驾游览,以及在下沉式道路、瞭望塔和伯恩赛德桥附近进行一些短途步行。
