The Breached Wall
April 10-11, 1862


"The result of this bombardment must cause, I am convinced, a change in the construction of fortification as radical as that foreshadowed in naval architecture by the conflict between the Monitor and Merrimac. No works of stone or brick can resist the impact of rifled artillery of heavy caliber"
Major General David Hunter, Dept. of the South Erected by National Park Service.


There are two markers with the title “The Breached Wall”. The second marker is located inside the fort.
