The National Park Visitor Center is housed in a building that was part of the Tredegar Foundry which was in business from the 1830’s until 1957. This foundry was responsible for over half of the cannon that were used by the confederate army during the Civil War. At the end of the war they became instrumental in creating railroad rails that were used all over the country.
