What is Living history?

• What did soldiers do to pass the time between battle campaigns?
• How heavy was the clothing and supplies they carried?
• How did you load a percussion cap musket?
• How did the conflict impact civilian life?

Find out these answers and more when you visit our Living History Encampments!

Most weekends*, April through November, the Gettysburg Heritage Center hosts complimentary Living History Encampments. Visitors are welcomed to actively learn by strolling through the camp, viewing drills and demonstrations, and engaging in conversation with historians.

*Featured participants & programs will vary and represent different aspects of life. Programming is dictated by the contracted living history unit.
