Reluctant Witnesses – Gettysburg Historic Town Walking Tours
11 Lincoln Square
Gettysburg, PA
Join the Reluctant Witnesses for a walking tour of the Center portion of the town, the heartbeat of 1863 Gettysburg.
We will examine the accounts of several of the civilians of Gettysburg that lived in town. They were reluctant witnesses to the Battle of Gettysburg. We will discuss the existing structures and what the town looked like in 1863. We will describe the events of July 1863 and how those townspeople remembered them.
This is a leisurely paced walk… No hiking… on paved roads…wheelchairs are manageable.
The tour will start outside 11 Lincoln Square. We will meet by the Statue of President Lincoln and the benches. The Tour will proceed around the center of the town to visit important Landmarks from 1863. We will walk on some of the historic Streets and return to the Square.
The walking tour will last two hours.
Tickets for All carriage, horseback, walking and car tours can be purchased online at the link provided or in person at the Gettysburg Heritage Center
