This is an experience gift voucher. The recipient will book the experience after they redeem the gift voucher.

Overview

Your route will begin at the Gettysburg Heritage Center. From there, you’ll head north, toward the National Cemetery, where Abraham Lincoln delivered the stirring Gettysburg Address.

Next, you’ll see the Jenny Wade House, home to the only civilian casualty of the battle. Then it’s on to the Children of Gettysburg museum, full of exhibits about those oft-forgotten witnesses to all the bloodshed.

You’ll arrive next at a Witness Tree, which Lincoln’s carriage passed on his way to deliver his famous speech. Then you’ll pass the home of Hettie Shriver, who inadvertently fled out of the frying pan and into the fire in her attempts to escape the fighting!

Next to that is the Pierce House Inn, once home to a young girl who became an unlikely combat medic during and after the battle! You’ll then see the Gettysburg Museum of history, a private collection of over 4,000 war-related artifacts, and learn about modern-day grave robbers.

The next landmark you’ll pass is a peculiar one—the remnants of an old cannon! Then there’s the Adams County Courthouse, which became an impromptu hospital for wounded soldiers as the fighting raged on.

Up next, you’ll pass the Gettysburg Hotel, rumored to be one of the most haunted places in town! Finally, after hearing about the battle’s devastating aftermath, you’ll arrive at the train station which became an emergency medical station after the fighting had concluded at long last. Your tour concludes here.
