App Description

The Antietam Battle App® is the perfect Civil War touring partner for your exploration of the Antietam battlefield. Our GPS-enabled touring application will guide you to all the historic spots on this 1862 Civil War battlefield – from the initial fighting at the Cornfield and West Woods to the Sunken Road and Burnside's Bridge.

Click on our "virtual signs" to access a wealth of information related to the very spot where you are standing. Onboard historian videos, audio accounts of soldiers from the battle, photos, orders of battle, chronologies, key facts, and more are just a click away. Our detailed maps allow you to locate just where certain Union and Confederate units were during different phases of the battle. Never has so much valuable information been made available in such a portable device.

The Antietam Battle App is just one of our expanding lineup of Battle Apps that are ready to be downloaded today. To learn more about all of our Battle App offerings visit our website at: https://www.battlefields.org/battleapps.
