Our mission at Monocacy National Battlefield is to preserve and protect the landscape, historic structures, archeological sites and monuments that contribute to the national significance of the Battle of Monocacy; to commemorate the Battle of Monocacy; and to provide opportunities for visitors to understand and appreciate the significance of the Battle of Monocacy within the full context of the Civil War and American history.

Please explore this section to learn how park management and staff are planning for the future of the park for our visitors, and to learn about the park's Centennial Initiative 2016 - part of the National Park Service's planning for its 100th anniversary.
