There are no national battlefield markings of this spot, as present day Nashville finds this a residential and commercial development south and west of the downtown area. Instead, several historic sites relating to the battle and period of Union occupation can be visited such as Belle Meade Plantation, Belmont Mansion, and Travellers Rest. The Battle of Nashville Monument was relocated in 1999 and is one of the few monuments dedicated to fighting men of both sides of the war. The Tennessee State Museum has a collection of artifacts covering all military actions of the state. The Nashville Military Cemetery is the resting place of more than 15,000 Union soldiers, including those killed at the Battle of Nashville. This battle followed the Battle of Franklin, Gen. John Bell Hood’s Army of Tennessee was routed at the Battle of Nashville and he retreated to Tupelo and resigned his command. This is noted as one of the most stunning victories achieved by the Union Army in the Civil War. Hood’s army entered Tennessee with over 30,000 men and left with less than 10,000.
