April 13, 14 and 15 will be a time to do something you've probably never done…visit all 12 Civil War Trails markers in Lynchburg. Did you know that Lynchburg has more Civil War Trails markers than most destinations in the state? What a great opportunity for an outing to see them all. Pick up a suggested tour itinerary at the Lynchburg Visitor Information Center in advance. Your final stop will be the newest marker on the grounds of EC Glass High School marking the site of a Civil War Prisoner of War camp. From 10am to 4pm each day there will be a re-creation of the prisoner of war tent encampment, along with living history visitors and the State’s traveling Civil War 'Sesquicentennial' Historymobile. This 53 foot long tractor-trailer is a mobile museum featuring experiential displays and interactive exhibits telling all the stories of the Civil War…black/white, free/slave, battlefield, home front. Due to high demand and aggressive scheduling, this will most likely be the Historymobile’s only stop in Lynchburg during its 2011 to 2015 run. Mark one, two or all three of these dates on your calendar and plan to take part. Bring a friend…bring your family….you won’t want to miss Civil War Trails Weekend in Lynchburg!
