The Brandy Station Foundation (BSF) was established to promote the development of the Brandy Station Battlefield

One of the most interesting facts about the Battle of Brandy Station is thatIt is a fact that the Brandy Station Foundation (BSF) was established to promote the development of the Brandy Station Battlefield. The organization grew to over 400 members over time and has been the cornerstone of efforts to prevent the battlefield from being turned into an office park and a racetrack, as well as conserving the historic Graffiti House. The National Park Service finished documenting the historic resources at Brandy Station in 1990 and proposed the preservation of 1,262 acres in four distinct engagement zones.


The American Battlefield Trust, formerly The Civil War Trust, has been the primary preservation group at Brandy Station. From 1997 to November 2021, the Trust, with the help of the BSF and other partners, acquired and maintained 2,159 acres of the battlefield in more than 15 different acquisitions. This resulted in the 2003 inauguration of Brandy Station Battlefield Park, which interprets the site's history. This work has prevented a number of commercial ventures, including a proposed Formula One racetrack in the late 1990s, from encroaching on the battleground. The Trust made a notable preservation triumph in 2013 when it purchased a 61-acre parcel at Fleetwood Hill, the location of many critical cavalry charges during the battle. Virginia agreed in 2022 to take 1700 acres from the Trust and up to 800 additional acres to create the Culpeper Battlefields State Park. On July 1, 2024, the Park is scheduled to open.
