Civil War Trails
Grove Farm at Antietam National Battlefield - Sharpsburg, Maryland

President Lincoln visited Gen. George McClellan at Antietam Battlefield two weeks after the September 17, 1862, battle.  The roof of the Grove Farm mansion can be seen in the background of this famous photo of Lincoln.
