Bentonville Battlefield is the site of the largest Civil War battle fought in North Carolina, where Union and Confederate forces clashed in March 1865 during the Carolinas Campaign. The MST passes through the surrounding fields and forests, with hiking trails throughout the grounds that include interpretive displays that help envision the battle’s scale and impact. The visitor center includes museum exhibits and artifacts from the three-day battle. Admission is free, and the gift shop offers books, apparel, and souvenirs.

You can take a self-guided tour of the battlefield and the Harper House, which served as a field hospital during the conflict. Guided tours of the house are available for a small fee.
