Gettysburg Today - Program
St. Joseph Museums 3406 Frederick Avenue, St. Joseph, Missouri 64506
What makes Gettysburg such a special place? James Hanni, Executive Vice-President of the Gettsyburg Foundation delves into why Gettysburg continues to fascinate and help visitors connect to a vital time in our shared history. In Gettysburg, a battle raged through the small south-central Pennsylvania town. Confederate and Union soldiers experienced monumental struggles and acts of great courage–acts that helped create our country's identity. Today, Gettysburg encourages visitors to walk the fields where these soldiers fought and died to find their own place in history. Hanni will provide information on all that Gettysburg has to offer–from the Cyclorama, Film and Museum Experience at the Gettysburg National Military Park and Visitor Center, to the tours of the battlefield and numerous historic sites around the town.
