Reviews of State of Pennsylvania Monument
"The Pennsylvania Momument is the largest state monument at Gettysburg. As the host state, that makes sense. It's a nice monument and has a small staircase to go on top. It's very narrow so be careful if you decide to go up."
"Awesome memorial. The trek up the winding staircase to the observation level was a neat experience for my kids. The view over the battlefield helped bring the battle together."
"This was a magnificent monument with a great view of the battlefield. You must walk up the spiral steps and check out the metal work along the way. Once you’re out on the balcony area, the view is spectacular. Highly recommended to spend a few minutes here."
"We took our bikes off our RV and went for a 4 mile ride. It was wonderful! So much to see. We will come back to enjoy again!"
"I found my true North. We did the guided audio tour via our vehicle. It was good for the amount of time we had. We seen several people with guides and rangers. If we would have been in town for more than one day, I would suggest that option."
