Most visitors to Appomattox Court House National Historical Park only see the historical village where the surrender took place. Few realize that the park contains over 1,700 acres with a diversity of natural resources including various plant and animal communities, streams, wetlands, forests and agricultural lands. Although these lands were acquired to protect the battlefield and vistas, they are a part of the National Park Service's mission to preserve and enhance the natural resources.
