Scene of Lee's final struggle against Grant, the city was besieged for 10 months (longest siege in U.S. history) before falling to the Union Army. The death toll was 28,000 Southern and 42,000 Northern lives. At Petersburg National Battlefield Park, living history and cannon and mortar firing demonstrations are presented in summer. Visit the Siege Museum, Centre Hill Mansion, and Old Blandford Church with its Tiffany windows.
