Women Behind These Walls Tour

0

Much of Civil War-era history is recorded through the eyes of men: soldiers, laborers, government officials, and others. Women Behind These Walls is an effort to share the stories and perspectives of civilian women who lived during the Battle of Gettysburg and its aftermath. The project, started in 2013, is a free, self-guided tour that winds through downtown Gettysburg to tell these amazing stories.
