This memorial, located on the hill where Maj.Gen. Robert E Rodes' Confederates attacked from, threatening Union forces. 75 years later, 1800 Civil War veterans helped dedicate this memorial to "Peace Eternal in a Nation United".
At this site, Union soldiers held stubbornly against Rodes' advance. Eventually the Union line from here to McPherson Ridge would begin to crumble.
On this site, the Confederate army positioned itself on high ground along Seminary Ridge
The large open field to the east of here is where the last Confederate assault of the battle known as "Pickett;s Charge", occurred July 3rd.
Lt. Gen. James Longstreet's Confederate army's assault's began here, directed at the Union troops occupying Devil's Den, the Wheatfield and Peach Orchard and against General Meade's undefended left flank at the Round Tops.
As a result of quick action by Brig. Gen Warren, Gen. Meade's chief engineer, Union officers were alerted to the Confederate threat and Federal reinforcements were brought here to defend the position
As a result of charges and countercharges, this field and nearby woods was strewn with over 4,000 dead and wounded
The Union line extended from Devil's Den to this point here, then angled northward on Emmittsburg Road. From here, Federal cannon bombarded Southern forces crossing the Rose Farm toward the Wheatfield. By that early evening, Confederate attacks overran the position.
Union soldiers crossed this ground on their way from the Peach Orchard to Cemetery Ridge to retreat as fighting raged to the south at the Wheatfield and Little Round Top
This is the point where Union artillery held the line here on Cemetery Ridge as General Meade called on more support to strengthen and hold the center of the Union position.
