Vicksburg is known for being the site of a key Civil War battle. The Siege of Vicksburg is commemorated at the vast Vicksburg National Military Park, which encompasses the Vicksburg National Cemetery and the restored USS Cairo gunboat, and the Old Court House has a museum displaying Civil War artifacts. This city has a major historic significance in American history; To Confederate President Jefferson Davis, Vicksburg was the "nailhead that holds the South's two halves together". President Abraham Lincoln remarked "Vicksburg is the key" to victory, and could be the north's lifeline into the south.
