(June 2013) Enlarge The Lotz House
 
Relatively new as a battlefield attraction is the home of the Albert Lotz family, who abandoned it during the battle to find shelter in the across-the-pike brick Carter House. The red flag hanging above the doorway indicates its use as a Confederate field hospital following Schofield's retreat the night following the battle. Ghastly bloodstains, including a remarkable "butt print" against one wall, attest to the suffering that occurred here
