    Description

    Third Louisiana Redan,
    Vicksburg National Military Park. Site of advanced
    Confederate redan that was twice mined and blown up, creating a crater. Into it Union infantry raced only to be driven back after severe fighting.
    Confederate Third Louisiana Redan, a Confederate fortification in Vicksburg National Military Park, Mississippi.
    The Third Louisiana Redan Just a few hundred yards from the Shirley House is what remains of the Third Louisiana Redan, a Confederate fortification constructed to defend the Jackson Road entrance to Vicksburg. Union soldiers dug tunnels under the fort and set off two massive explosions here, hoping to blast a hole.
    Vicksburg National Military Park preserves the site of the American Civil War Battle of Vicksburg, waged from March 29 to July 4, 1863. The park, located in Vicksburg, Mississippi (flanking the Mississippi River), also commemorates the greater Vicksburg Campaign which led up to the battle. Reconstructed forts and trenches evoke memories of the 47-day siege that ended in the surrender of the city. Victory here and at Port Hudson, farther south in Louisiana, gave the Union control of the Mississippi River.
