On April 4, 1865 President Abraham Lincoln arrived in Richmond, only a day after it’s occupation by the United States Army. What occurred during this visit has been one of the most mythologized events of the Civil War.Join a Park Ranger as we retrace the steps of this “strange presidential entry” to separate fact from fiction, and examine the event in a larger context.
