Civil War Sesquicentennial

In commemorating the 150th anniversary of the American Civil War, HRF is pleased to partner with the Richmond Region in promoting our city’s great historic legacy; particularly when the story of the Civil War is told through its buildings. During the years of 2011 and 2015, Historic Richmond Foundation invites residents and tourists to take a journey through the city’s many antebellum architectural sites.
