5001 Siege Rd Petersburg , VA 23803 United States
Plan on spending a good 3 or 4 hours so you can experience everything on the driving tour . The visitors center at the battlefield was very informational. Definitely worth the trip to Petersburg.
One of the most interesting stories of the Civil War . Watch the intro movie at the visitors center and be sure to check out the mine and the crater during your visit.
Give yourself several hours to see it all. Lots of history. The driving tour was very easy and everything was well marked.
The battlefield is well maintained with a large expanse of trails . The museum on site is small but pristine!
A great place to spend less than an hour learning about the civil war .
So much to see! Good driving tour , nice trails !
The Ft Lee entrance is NOT free. You are expected to pay an entrance fee unless you're in PTs between 0530 and 0730. Park rangers do come from time to time to ask for a pass! Happened to me!
I love it great place to learn some history
Nice and shady spot to park a ambulance while waiting for a run
Enter inside Ft Lee for free if you have a DOD sticker or get a 24 hour pass.
This is the wrong visitor center . Head to 5001 siege road .

Not too much is left of it, but definitely worth checking out none the less. Very creepy being in a spot so many died at. - Matt
This whole park is worth coming to, well kept and tidy. - Dave III
Worth stopping for because you get to see the crater from another perspective. - Matt
Tour was great. The guy was very knowledgeable and gave us history of the place and genealogical information. If you go in the summer though, be careful. Lots of hornets! - Bern C
Excellent museum and with well thought out displays. Located on Fort Lee Army post. - Robert A
Just a short drive south of Richmond this is a great location for a quick stop in our history. Bring a picnic. - L.F. Ruiz
