Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
World Heritage
Poverty Point
Poverty Point, Louisiana, is a large Native American site composed of ridges of land, mounds and squares. Its monumental form, built by hunter-gatherer societies, is shaking up the ideas received about prehistoric social organization in North America and is clearly revealed since the interpretation routes.
Nature and landscape
Vicksburg National Military Park
The Vicksburg National Military Park Crosses the heights linked to the siege of 1863 with a sequence of positions, batteries and trenches that guides the walk in the historical order. The presence of the USS Cairo at the end of the journey gives a maritime anchor to the terrestrial narrative.
Place indismissible
USS Cairo
I'm not sure what I'm doing.USS Cairo is an ancient river warship preserved as an object of memory, with a history of fighting and captures on the Mississippi. Its hull allows to grasp concretely the 19th century inland naval war, far from the purely terrestrial narratives.
Culture and heritage
Old Courthouse Museum
I'm not sure what I'm doing.Old Courthouse Museum dominates Vicksburg From a hill and tells the local resistance during the siege. The auxiliary buildings and original spaces form a coherent whole to understand how the city organized its urban survival in a moment of crisis.
