Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park, Marietta, Georgia
The Battle of Kennesaw Mountain

Union troops under Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman attacked Gen. Joseph E. Johnston's entrenched Confederates along the Kennesaw Mountain line on the morning of June 27, 1864. There were over 4,000 casualties at the Battle of Kennesaw Mountain. The 2,922 acre Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park commemorates the sacrifices of those who fought and those who died in the four month Atlanta campaign during the summer of 1864.
