We are working towards conducting a thorough special resource study of Fort Pillow Historic State Park in Henning, Tennessee, to evaluate its national significance and determine if it can be designated as a unit of the National Historic Park System. This effort highlights the profound impact the site had on U.S. Colored Troops and all Union forces during the Civil War, enhancing our understanding and preservation of this important historical landmark.
