Federal Redan site at the Corinth Unit of Shiloh National Military Park
See the Corinth Civil War Driving Tour web page for a location map and information on other Corinth battlefield sites.
The site of a Union redan at the Corinth Unit of Shiloh National Military Park is marked with a National Park Service sign. There is nothing at this site other than the marker. No information panels explain its significance. I find it odd that maps show every Union fortification around Corinth and lists their names, yet this one is generically titled “Federal Redan.” By the way, a redan is a V-shaped fortification that has its point jutting out to where an expected attack will come from.
There is no parking area for this site, so pull off on the shoulder of the road to view the field.
