The National Park Service is now accepting applications for Battlefield Restoration Grants, which offer 50% matching funds to restore battlefields to conserve open spaces, protect natural resources, and enhance public access. Eligible projects include preservation, rehabilitation, and restoration activities for properties acquired with the assistance of an NPS Battlefield Land Acquisition Grant,  properties that are owned/managed by state or local government entities, such as state or local battlefield parks, or properties that are owned/managed by nonprofit organizations. Two grant types are available: 1. Scoping Grants ($30,000–$100,000, 1–2 year duration) support early-stage planning such as historical research, stakeholder consultation, and development of treatment and management; 2. Implementation Grants ($50,000–$750,000, 2–5 year duration) fund physical restoration work based on completed plans, including reconstruction of documented landscape features. Applications are due January 8, 2026. Learn more and apply.
