About Gettysburg

Site of the 1863 Civil War battle, with a national military park wrapped around a small Pennsylvania town. The battlefield grounds and monuments are open to walk or drive through, while the museum, film and cyclorama are ticketed. The auto tour route is spread out, so a car, a bike or a guided bus tour matters. Summer, and the early July anniversary in particular, is the busiest stretch.
