Gettysburg holds a particular symbolism for all Americans but also for those who are interested in the history of the country, as this is the site of one of the most important battles of the US Civil War as well as the largest land battle ever fought in North America.

The city is served by several regional airports but more importantly none of them is particularly close-by.

The main attraction of the city is without a doubt its strong link to America’s history, there are many museums around town exhibiting various facets of that time period and of the battle that took place around the town. Touring the battlefields is an absolute must.

One interesting attraction a bit apart from what you might expect is the Jennie Wade House which was the house of the only Gettysburg citizen to be killed  during the Battle of Gettysburg, the 20 year old Jennie Wade. The building only went through a few minor changes and repairs through the past century, so what you will see is a perfect example of what it looked like when Jennie lived in it.

One of the main museums in town is The American Civil War Museum; as one might expect from its name, the museum present the entire story of the Civil War and presents the era that it took place in as well as the actual Battle of Gettysburg with remarkable realism.
