It's a very cool place to visit. The place was abandoned for years, but has now been restored so it looks like it did then. The modern town of Appomattox is a few miles away.

They have the roles where the Confederates pledged allegiance to the US. In return they were given food and other provisions and promised transportation home.

Some signed, some just left. They were through with taking orders from anyone. My wife's great grandfather was one of them. He just left and walked all the way home to south Alabama.
