About: Tredegar Iron Works

An Entity of Type: architectural structure, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Tredegar Iron Works in Richmond, Virginia, was the biggest ironworks in the Confederacy during the American Civil War, and a significant factor in the decision to make Richmond its capital. Tredegar supplied about half the artillery used by the Confederate States Army, as well as the iron plating for CSS Virginia, the first Confederate ironclad warship, which fought in the historic Battle of Hampton Roads in March 1862. The works avoided destruction by troops during the evacuation of the city, and continued production through the mid-20th century. Now classified as a National Historic Landmark District, the site serves as the main building of the American Civil War Museum.

  • Les Tredegar Iron Works sont des forges historiques de Richmond, la capitale de l’État de Virginie. Fondées en 1837, c'était dès 1860 le troisième plus gros centre sidérurgique des États-Unis. Au cours de la guerre de Sécession, elles constituèrent la principale usine de production de fonte et d’artillerie des États confédérés d'Amérique. Elles échappèrent à la destruction au cours de l’incendie de Richmond (1865), et poursuivirent leur production jusqu'au milieu du XXe siècle. Classé depuis les années 1970 National Historic Landmark, ce site de 9 ha et ses bâtiments sert de hall d'accueil aux touristes visitant le Richmond National Battlefield Park géré par le National Park Service. Il comporte un musée privé, l’American Civil War Center at Historic Tredegar. (fr)

The name Tredegar derives from the Welsh industrial town that supplied much of the company's early workforce. (en)
  • Tredegar Iron Works — металлургический завод в Ричмонде, штат Вирджиния, США. Открыт в 1837 году и к 1860 году уже был третьим по величине металлургическим заводом в США. Во время гражданской войны завод был главным поставщиком металла и артиллерии для Конфедерации. Завод избежал разрушения во время эвакуации Ричмонда в 1865 году и продолжил работу в конце XIX века и в первой половине XX века, во время обеих мировых войн.
