Fredericksburg Battlefield, VA, US - Part 1
Please visit for full video and more free videos. Fredericksburg is an independent city in the Commonwealth of Virginia located 50 miles south of Washington, D.C., and 58 miles north of Richmond. It is a part of the Washington Metropolitan Area.
Located on the Rappahannock River near the head of navigation at the fall line, Fredericksburg developed as the frontier of colonial Virginia shifted west out of the coastal plain.
Named for Frederick, Prince of Wales, son of King George II, the colonial town's streets bore the names of members of the royal family.
The city has close associations with George Washington, whose family moved to Ferry Farm in Stafford County just off the Rappahannock opposite Fredericksburg in 1738.
Other significant early residents include the Revolutionary War generals Hugh Mercer and George Weedon, naval war hero John Paul Jones, and future U.S. president James Monroe.
During the American Civil War, Fredericksburg gained strategic importance due to its location midway between Washington and Richmond, the opposing capitals of the Union and the Confederacy.
During the battle of Fredericksburg, December 11 - 15, 1862, the town sustained significant damage due to bombardment and looting at the hands of Union forces.
A second battle was fought in and around the town on May 3, 1863, in connection with the Chancellorsville campaign (April 27, 1863 - May 6, 1863).
The battles of the Wilderness and Spotsylvania Court House were fought nearby in May 1864.
Today Fredericksburg is the commercial hub of a rapidly growing region in north central Virginia.
The national military park preserves portions of the battlefields of Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, the Wilderness, and Spotsylvania Court House. The Fredericksburg National Cemetery, also part of the park, is located on Maryes Heights on the Fredericksburg battlefield and contains more than 15,000 Union burials from the areas battlefields.
