Hotel Reservations near VICKSBURG, MISSISSIPPI

Both the French and Spanish built forts in the area during different periods of the 18th century. The East side of the Mississippi River came into U.S. possession in 1798, the West side in 1803, with the Louisiana Purchase. Vicksburg, Mississippi officially became a city in 1825. It became a busy river port with flatboat, then steamboat traffic; the railroad added to its success in 1840. Jefferson Davis gave his first address here as President of the new Confederacy in 1861. At the start of the Civil War, the South closed the river to navigation, threatening the North's commerce. New Orleans was the Union's and President Lincoln said 'Vicksburg is the Key' to regain control of the lower Mississippi. The Vicksburg campaign lasted over 3 months in 1863. It included several battles at other locations and led to a 47-day siege against the Confederate forces in the city. Vicksburg was called 'The Gibraltar of the Confederacy', because of its location high on the bluffs, like a fortress guarding the River. Vicksburg fell on July 4, 1863, giving the North control of the Mississippi River, after 19,000 total casualties from both sides. In 1876, the Mississippi River changed course and left Vicksburg high and dry. In 1903, the Army Corp of Engineers completed a diversion canal with the Yazoo River and reestablished Vicksburg as a river city again. In April, 1973, lower portions of the city were inundated as the Mississippi and Yazoo Rivers flooded. The Vicksburg National Military Park has 1,325 historic monuments/markers, 20 miles of reconstructed trenches and earthworks, 144 emplaced cannon, and a 16-mile tour road. The Vicksburg National Cemetery not only includes the battle's dead, but also 13,000 unknown Union soldiers brought from temporary burial places all over the South.

Activities: Vicksburg National Military Park and Cemetery, Old Court House Museum, Southern Cultural Heritage Complex, Biedenharn Museum of Coca-Cola Memorabilia, Yesterday's Children Antique Doll and Toy Musuem, Gray & Blue Naval Museum, Antebellum homes, and more.
