Description: The Lutheran Church just east of Sharpsburg marks the extent of the Union offensive during the Battle of Antietam, 1862. Union skirmishers moved to the cross-street just beyond the church as a Confederate Corps commanded by A.P. Hill arrived on the Shepherdstown Rd., surprising Burnside's troops and driving them back.
