Chickamauga & Chattanooga National Military Park preserves the sites of two major Civil War Battlefields, The Chickamauga Battlefield and the Chattanooga Campaign. The Confederate victory at Chickamauga allowed the confederates to hold the heights around the city, an important transportation hub. In Chattanooga campaign, the Union retook the city and dashed confederate hopes of winning the Western theatre.
