Itinerary
Your guide will orient you to the area of East Cemetery Hill which is the location of heavy fighting during the Battle of Gettysburg before you enter the National Soldiers Orphanage Homestead. This building was used as the headquarters for General O.O. Howard during the battle and was also use as a hospital during and after the battle. After the end of the Civil War the building was turned into an orphanage for children whose fathers were lost during the American Civil War. That is where our story begins...

About Gettysburg
Gettysburg is a small Pennsylvania town beside the battlefield where the Union army defeated Lee's army in July 1863, with museums, monuments and orchards.
Gettysburg is a small town in south-central Pennsylvania, surrounded by farmland and low ridges. The Battle of Gettysburg was fought here over three days in July 1863, the largest battle of the American Civil War, and the Union victory is seen as a turning point. The battlefield is now a national military park, covering miles of fields and ridges with hundreds of monuments, cannon and markers.
