Name

Encounters with History - The Town of Gettysburg Walking Tour

Description

Gettysburg has a vibrant history that dates back to the establishment of Samuel Gettys' tavern during the 1760's. Through the years, the town saw conflict, was visited by two presidents (and one retired here!) and mirrored a growing America. Go beyond a standard Gettysburg Licensed Town Guide Tour and explore the town in detail with a morning introductory talk and then a 90-minute tour of the northern part of town.  After lunch, there will be another introductory talk and a 90-minute tour of the southern end of town. Your Gettysburg Licensed Town Guide will explain Gettysburg's history through a series of stories - the walks will be at a moderate pace. This program will have considerable emphasis on the town's experience during the July 1-3, 1863, period, how civilians weathered the battle, and Lincoln's visit to dedicate the National Cemetery.

 

The program begins at the Gettysburg National Military Park Museum & Visitor Center (1195 Baltimore Pike) at 9:00 a.m. and will conclude at 4 p.m. back at the Visitor Center.
