The Battle of Guilford Courthouse

Reenactors tell the story

The largest, most hotly-contested battle of the Revolutionary War’s Southern Campaign was fought on March 15, 1781, at the small North Carolina backcounty hamlet of Guilford Courthouse. Each year, on the anniversary of the battle, reenactors gather in Greensboro to bring history to life for visitors.
