Yellow Bluff Fort Historic State Park, located in Jacksonville, Florida, serves as a preserved Civil War encampment that allows visitors to step back in time and explore an important military position from the conflict. The park features T-shaped earthworks, several cannons, and picnic areas, all nestled under oak trees along the north side of the St. Johns River.
This small, contemplative park is a memorial to the soldiers who once occupied the site, which housed both Confederate and Union troops during the war. With its tranquil nature trails and historical significance, Yellow Bluff Fort offers a unique opportunity for picnicking, walking, and reflecting on Jacksonville's Civil War history.
