Visit the Guilford Courthouse National Military Park
The Battle of Guilford Courthouse took place in what is now modern-day Greensboro more than 240 years ago, and it contributed to British forces abandoning North Carolina. "The events at Guilford Courthouse influenced the outcome of the American Revolution", according to the National Park Service.
Visitors and history buffs who visit the site express gratitude for the designated cultural landscape, which with 29 gravesites and monuments helps us understand the battle tactics of the American forces and the human toll of war. The 250-acre park contains an important piece of American history as well as a small number of natural attractions. The majority of the park is forested, with a variety of oak trees, and walking trails wind through the park and surrounding areas.
