Horseshoe Bend National Military Park

In the spring of 1814, General Andrew Jackson and an army of 3,300 men attacked 1,000 Upper Creek warriors on the Tallapoosa River. Over 800 Upper Creeks died defending their homeland. Today, visitors can enjoy living history exhibitions, guided tours, and self-guided trails.
