Battery Park

Battery Park is one of Charleston’s most historic waterfront areas, offering sweeping views of the harbor. Once a strategic military defense site, it played a key role in protecting the city from naval attacks during the Civil War. Today, the area is known for its grand antebellum mansions, tree-lined streets, and White Point Garden, a park filled with historic cannons and monuments. The combination of history and scenic beauty makes Battery Park one of Charleston’s most iconic locations.
