Maryland Battlefield Preservation Program
Preservation Maryland has a growing portfolio of battlefield preservation projects comprising a new program. Today, the program is gaining traction and building capacity to support the preservation of these sites across the state and to inform and encourage broad and diverse interpretations of the many people who were impacted by the battles – from the soldiers to the enslaved.
Central to the ability for us to return to these hallowed grounds is preservation; which is one of the primary reasons that Preservation Maryland has recently launched its own battlefield preservation program aimed at helping to preserve, rehabilitate and interpret some of the state’s most iconic places — and to make certain that the stories told are comprehensive and inclusive of their long histories.
