As America struggles with its new war in Iraq, the site of this park also focused attention, in its day, on the realities of an emerging war.

Manassas National Battlefield Park was established in 1940 to preserve the scene of two major Civil War battles. A few miles north of the prized railroad junction of Manassas, Virginia, and along the meandering stream called Bull Run, this otherwise peaceful countryside bore witness to clashes between Northern and Southern armies in 1861 and 1862.
