The Congress finds the following: Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park was authorized as a unit of the National Park System on June 26, 1935. Prior to 1935, parts of the park had been acquired and protected by Civil War veterans and the War Department. Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park protects Kennesaw Mountain and Kolb’s Farm, which are battle sites along the route of General Sherman’s 1864 campaign to take Atlanta. Most of the park protects Confederate positions and strategy.
The Wallis House is one of the few original structures remaining from the Battle of Kennesaw Mountain associated with Union positions and strategy. The Wallis House is strategically located next to a Union signal station at Harriston Hill.
