Tupelo National Battlefield, Civil War battlefield in Mississippi

Tupelo National Battlefield is a 1-acre grassy park on Main Street in Tupelo, Mississippi, marking the Battle of Tupelo of July 14–15, 1864. It holds a flagpole, a memorial monument and two cannons, and closely resembles the nearby Brices Cross Roads National Battlefield Site.

The battlefield saw a clash between Union and Confederate forces in July 1864, during the Civil War's final years. The Union victory here helped secure control of northeastern Mississippi and disrupted Confederate supply lines in the region.

The site is a 1-acre grassy park on Main Street with a flagpole, a memorial monument and two cannons. The monument standing today replaces an earlier concrete one that the 1936 Tupelo-Gainesville Tornado tore from the ground and shattered. The layout closely mirrors that of Brices Cross Roads National Battlefield Site.

The site is a one-acre grassy plot on Main Street in Tupelo, with no visitor services, restrooms or staff on hand. Information and orientation are provided at the Natchez Trace Parkway visitor center six miles north. The monument, flagpole and two cannons stand close together, so the whole ground can be seen in a short stop.

The entire battlefield is a single acre on Main Street, with a flagpole, a memorial monument and two cannons. The 1936 Tupelo-Gainesville tornado tore the concrete monument from the ground and shattered it. The site is managed like Brices Cross Roads National Battlefield Site, and information is available at the Natchez Trace Parkway visitor center six miles north.
