Ox Hill Battlefield Park is the site of the only major Civil War engagement in Fairfax County.
More than 1,500 soldiers were killed or wounded during a battle waged in a torrential thunderstorm at a critical point in the four-year conflict.
The Battle of Ox Hill, the Confederate name for what the Union Army called the Battle of Chantilly, took place on the afternoon of September 1, 1862.
