The battlefield of Olustee is still commemorated today

One of the most interesting facts about the Battle of Olustee is that the battlefield of Olustee is still commemorated today. The Olustee Battleground Historic State Park, which is part of the Florida State Park system, commemorates the battlefield today. This park is located on US Highway 90 within the Osceola National Forest. The battlefield is part of a national forest and is partially protected as a state park. A portion of it is privately owned land on the south side of US Highway 90. However, there is still no memorial to the Union soldiers that died in this combat as of 2022.

Every Presidents' Day weekend in February, an annual historical reenactment is held on the battlefield. Thousands of reenactors from all across the United States, and even from other countries, have taken part over the years. They are taken to see demonstrations and hear historians describe various aspects of the war and life in the United States in the 1860s. On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, the event is free to the public. There are various sutler tents selling Civil War memorabilia. The bouts will be held on Saturday and Sunday.

The Olustee Battlefield Historic State Park Citizens Support Organization, the Florida Department of Environmental Protection - Recreation and Parks, the USDA Forest Service - Osceola National Forest, and The Blue-Grey Army, Inc. are all co-sponsoring the reenactment.
