Gettysburg Battlefield, around 1903. You can see Cemetery Ridge and Hancock Avenue. The statue of General George Meade is on the left, and the area of Pickett's Charge is on the right.

The Battle of Gettysburg was a very important fight during the American Civil War, happening from July 1 to 3, 1863. Today, many statues and markers stand on the Gettysburg Battlefield to remember this battle. Most of these memorials are inside the Gettysburg National Military Park, but some are on private land nearby. Together, they form one of the biggest collections of outdoor sculptures in the world!

These monuments are a key part of the Gettysburg Battlefield Historic District, which was officially recognized in 2004. As of 2008, the park had over 1,300 monuments and markers, 410 cannons, and many historic buildings. The largest group of monuments is found at the Gettysburg National Cemetery, where President Abraham Lincoln gave his famous Gettysburg Address.
