DALTON, GA (WDEF) – History comes to life this weekend at the Dalton Convention Center as it hosts the annual Chickamauga Dalton Civil War Show.

This highly anticipated gathering brings together dealers, historians, and Civil War experts from across the country, showcasing a vast collection of artifacts, weaponry, documents, and memorabilia from one of the most defining periods in American history. 

Visitors are given the opportunity to explore rare relics, engage with knowledge exhibitors, and even purchase authentic pieces of history.

During the Civil War, Chattanooga was a crucial strategic city due to its railroads and location along the Tennessee River.

Whether you’re a seasoned collector, a student of history, or simply curious about the past, there’s something for everyone. 

The Chickamauga Dalton Civil War Show is taking place at the Dalton Convention Center this weekend offering a unique chance to step back in time and experience history firsthand.
