Father’s Day Special Adventure

There is so much to see, do and explore at Children of Gettysburg 1863^®. Father’s Day is an excellent time to experience the adventure in Gettysburg’s most family-friendly children’s history museum.

Join us on the front porch of the children’s history museum for “Just Like Dad” on Father’s Day. Ticket holders can craft a likeness of their fathers and spend time experiencing history in the interactive exhibits of the museum adventure.

The interactive children’s history museum tells the engaging stories of children, teens and young adults who lived in and near the town of Gettysburg during and after the Battle of Gettysburg. Visitors have the opportunity to experience history as they journey through the galleries and hear first-hand accounts from numerous young residents from 1863 such as William Bayly, Albertus McCreary, Sadie Bushman and Tillie Pierce.
