For those who come to Gettysburg, there is a journey back in time to a battleground where armies converged and men gallantly rose to do battle. Had it not been for those three July days when Federals and Confederates fought and died in its streets and surrounding fields and hills, this quiet Pennsylvania town would be as little known today as it was before they clashed more than a century ago. Gettysburg National Military Park, located in southeasten Pennsylvania, was established in 1895 to preserve the site of the great Civil War battle fought on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd of July 1863.
