Park Visitor Center Reopens Following Rehabilitation

The Antietam National Battlefield Visitor Center opened to the public in the winter of 1963. Over the past two years, it has been extensively restored and it is now home to new interpretive exhibits. The Visitor Center is open every day from 9 am to 5 pm.
