Site of the Battle of Natural Bridge: America 250 FL

7502 Natural Bridge Rd
Tallahassee FL 32305

Fought on March 6, 1865, along a natural limestone bridge over the St. Marks River south of Tallahassee, this pivotal Civil War clash saw Confederate soldiers, including Florida Military School cadets, successfully repel Union forces led by Brig. Gen. John Newton. The victory preserved Tallahassee as the only Confederate state capital east of the Mississippi River not captured by Union troops. Today, the park hosts an annual reenactment featuring local interpreters for both the Union Army, including Black infantry, and the Confederacy.
