Tour Stop 7 (Shiloh Church)
Here stood Shiloh Meeting House, the log Methodist church that gave the battle its name. On the morning of April 6, Sherman's division held this area of the battlefield until forced to abandon it. Later Beauregard established his headquarters here. the present church and cemetery are privately owned, but park visitors are welcome on the grounds. |
