Excellant National park, definitely a place to see. The park visitors center is very nice with a museum and gift shop in the center. Staff are very friendly and helpful. The military battlefield and park was inspiring and the park staff keep it looking as much like it did during the battle as possible. Park Rangers are loaded with detailed info on everything about the battle and the time. I would go back in a heartbeat!

A fantastic military park! This place is a must-visit for any person who’s interested in American history and absolutely breath-taking views. To start off, the visitor center is state-of-the-art: new museum, films, facilities, and more. What is undesirable is that most everything is for a fee (see pictures for costs of films and museum entrance). Besides that, the park is phenomenal. A drive (over 20 miles) provides views is over 1,000 monuments dedicated to those that served and gave their lives to the Battle of Gettysburg (see pictures for just a few of them). Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this park and only saw a small fraction of it. There is plenty to impress everyone!

Very nice place. Tour guide very helpful. He personally took us around pointing out places of interest and telling lively stories of historic events. Answered questions we had. Excellent gift shop. A nice variety of items for small and large prices. Saw a tour bus bring a large group of Amish people. It's was a nice visit and a way to get in touch with history.

This place is huge. It requires a full weekend to get the entire experience. The auto tour is informative and a good way to guide yourself through the town. There are many places that you can park and look closely at the monuments and battlefield and get a real feel for how the battle lines were drawn on separate days. The town is unfortunately a tourist trap, with many of the prices that go along with that title, but some places are reasonable if you take your time. If you are looking for confederate monuments, confederate street will be the only place you can find them. Union monuments, however, seem to outnumber the people. All in all, a great historical destination for all ages.

This National Memorial is a truly amazing place covering hundreds of acres of land on which the most deadly battles in the Western Hemisphere were fought. Dozens of memorials to the men who fought for their beliefs and were captured, wounded or died in defense of those beliefs situated along roads within the Park. The Visitors Centre is a wealth of knowledge and artifacts recognizing the sacrifices made here. Awe inspiring, sad and peaceful all at the same time. Visits will take at least a day or two to fully appreciate. Should be mandatory for those who would revise history by eliminating the memory of the leaders of both sides.
