Rose Hill and Civil War
Throughout the Civil War,
Frederick citizens were witnesses to the passing of countless numbers of
soldiers. In 1861, Frederick became a garrison and throughout the
remaining years of war served as a crossroads for passing of troops.
From 1862 through 1865 thousands of soldiers were treated in Frederick's Civil War Hospitals.
In 1862 and 1863, the residents of Rose Hill Manor were
first-hand witnesses to the effects of the Civil War as it became an
encampment for both Union and Confederate troops. Join reenactors and
living historians from across the region to view what life was like both
on and off the battlefield.
