It has a grueling and gruesome past as well as a monumental and influential one. Gettysburg is now a pretty place, preserving the memorial of the battle of Gettysburg, the battle with the largest number of casualties in the American Civil War and also the turning point of the war.
Today the site is named the Gettysburg National Military Park and there also stands the Gettysburg National Cemetry. Take the kids on an educational vacation in an RV. Visit Gettysburg and it's surrounding area. Begin your visit at the Park Museum and the visitor center. There's ranger programs, guided tours, concerts and events that make Gettysburg avery informative and special place to come.
The Park offers a lot for the tourist. Take a guide in your personal vehicle and they'll show you the sites, or jump on the tour bus which drives through the park. Use the self guided Auto Tour facility which can be picked up from the museum and visitor center or get an audio tour in CD form to play in the RV.
