| Description: | The American Civil War Center at Historic Tredegar (ACWCHT) has been established as a non-profit corporation dedicated to the purpose of providing visitor services and historical, educational, and interpretive programs and materials of the national Civil War story at the Tredegar Iron Works. The American Civil War Center and the Richmond National Battlefield Park (RNBP) share this mission and have common goals surrounding the Tredegar Iron Works story.
The New Market Corporation owns the Tredegar Iron Works and has licensed the American Civil War Center to manage and use the Tredegar Iron Works for educational purposes and has allowed the RNBP to have a sub-license to use the Pattern Storage Building at the Tredegar Iron Works as a visitor center. Thus the ACWCHT and RNBP share space in the Tredegar Iron Works and wish to work together towards the mutual goals of increasing visitation, providing programs, materials, and facilities for orientation, interpretation and education of Civil War history, and ensuring the preservation of the Tredegar Iron Works, a National Historic Landmark. |
