The historic buildings of Gettysburg have their own special look and draw admirers from all over. If the walls of these historic structures could talk, they would have many interesting stories to tell!
Gary Manville has taken his talent of working with small-scale replicas, and branched out into the buildings of Gettysburg. These HO-scale buildings are done with historical accuracy as to how they stood at the time of the battle. The time and precision to construct a Battleground Building makes them all the more precious to the beholder.
Gary will be at the Gettysburg Heritage Center to talk with visitors, sell replicas of the buildings, and take orders for any not in stock. This is a great opportunity to take home a piece of Gettysburg - miniature sized!
CommUnity Spirit 10-mile Race

We're excited to announce a new running experience in Gettysburg! The CommUnity Spirit 10-mile Race will offer participants a course that will take you through town and out into the countryside, and at the same time pull in many community partners to aid in raising much-needed funds for the YWCA’s mission of eliminating racism and empowering women.
The run will begin at the YWCA Gettysburg & Adams County, 909 Fairfield Road, travel through parts of historic Gettysburg Borough including the iconic Steinwehr Avenue with views of the Pennsylvania Memorial, past beautifully preserved farms in Cumberland and Freedom townships, over the Sachs Covered and Eisenhower bridges and end at the Gettysburg Heritage Center on Steinwehr Avenue.
