Plan Your Visit | Antietam
The Pry House Field Hospital Museum tells the story of a home that became a headquarters and hospital during the bloodiest single day in American history: September 17, 1862. As the Battle of Antietam raged within view of the Pry family’s house, decisions were made on this historic property that shaped the lives of soldiers, surgeons, and civilians.
Visit the Pry House on Antietam National Battlefield and discover how emergency medicine evolved during the Civil War and the impact on the soldiers.
