This overlook on Lookout Mountain offers a view of Chattanooga, Tennessee, the Tennessee River, and the park's Moccasin Bend Unit. NPS photo.

Our National Park System contains thousands of monuments commemorating people or events connected to the Civil War, but one of those memorials has an unusual reconciliation theme. It's located in the country's oldest national military park, which is also said by some to be the site of one of "the most noted battles of the modern world." Can you name this unit of the National Park System?

The developed area there on Moccasin Bend used to be (or still is) a TN state mental facility.
