Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, was the site of one of the most infamous battles of the Civil War. Today, Gettysburg National Military Park is home to the Gettysburg Museum and Visitor Center and Gettysburg National Cemetery. The area draws visitors for its historical significance and haunted occurrences. The best way to get the full Gettysburg experience is by taking a battlefield tour.
