A must before your battlefield tour, visit the Gettysburg Diorama for a special 35-minute program. The three-day Battle can be confusing, the Diorama will make your driving tour of the Battlefield more understandable.
See the entire battlefield in 3-D miniature as you hear the story of the three-day battle and how it progressed. Over 20,000 hand-painted miniatures bring the Battle of Gettysburg alive with a sound and light show describing the battle. Miniature vinyettes surrounding the Diorama show close up detail of Generals' headquarters and specific battles. Civil War paintings and miniature soldier collection also may be viewed. Great gift shop.
Learn and visualize the Battle as it is beautifully and dramatically narrated with light and sound effects.
This facility is handicapped accessible.
