ALEXANDRIA, Va. — As a historic Civil War site and public park, Fort Ward Park offers natural beauty and history. The park encompasses the preserved remnants of Fort Ward, a Union Army fortification built in 1861 as part of the defenses of Washington, D.C. This well-preserved earthen fort, along with its Civil War artifacts museum and interpretive exhibits, provides insight into the fort's role and the broader context of the war. Walking trails, picnic areas, and educational programs within the park make it a cultural and recreational hub.
