“Where the nation turned.”
Gettysburg National Military Park preserves the landscape of one of the most pivotal battles of the American Civil War.
Spanning rolling fields, ridgelines, and historic roads, the park marks where Union and Confederate forces clashed in July 1863, shaping the course of the nation’s history.
Today, monuments, preserved terrain, and quiet vistas invite reflection on sacrifice, division, and reconciliation, making Gettysburg not only a battlefield, but a lasting symbol of the cost of conflict and the struggle to define a nation.
