The Beyond the Battle Museum features more than 1,000 rare artifacts and the latest technology, exploring more than three centuries of remarkable stories. The premier exhibit—Caught in the Crossfire—invites visitors to step inside a meticulously recreated Civil War-era home and experience the ordeal of Gettysburg’s civilians through sights, sounds, and special effects.

While the Museum tour is self-guided, there will be a guided tour offered exclusively to SCPGS of the Charlie Glatfelter Research Room and Archives.
