This guided walking tour follows key locations where soldiers fought among homes, businesses, alleyways, and public buildings, revealing a side of the Battle of Gettysburg often overlooked by visitors.

Through firsthand accounts, historic photographs, and detailed local knowledge, guests gain a deeper understanding of the confusion, courage, and chaos that swept through Gettysburg’s streets. The tour highlights how the battle directly affected residents caught in the crossfire and examines the strategic importance of the town’s streets during the conflict.
