A major part of national history, Gettysburg is the famous site of the Battle of Gettysburg, fought at the Gettysburg National Battlefield, which is now a part of the expansive Gettysburg National Military Park. This treasured park is also the home to the Gettysburg Museum and Visitor Center, Devil’s Den, State of Pennsylvania Monument, and more historic sites. The city of Gettysburg houses Gettysburg College along with various public schools and community parks like the Gettysburg Recreational Park.

Even more historic attractions reside in different parts of the city, including the Gettysburg Museum of History, the Shriver House Museum, and the Jennie Wade House, dedicated to domestic wartime life. Gettysburg has since recovered and is now a historic, charming, and welcoming suburb of Pennsylvania. Local businesses thrive in this historic hub. Enjoy a homemade treat at Mr.
