MAWMR’26 Excursion – Gettysburg Beyond the Battle Museum

​Join us and visit USA TODAY’s Best New Museum. Beyond the Battle Museum tells the remarkable story of Gettysburg civilians and their extraordinary experiences before, during, and after the Civil War. Through 12 interactive exhibit galleries packed with rare artifacts, the museum explores the story of Gettysburg like you’ve never seen or heard it before. A local historian will be on hand to provide additional information.

While you are there, don’t miss Caught in the Crossfire, the museum’s premier exhibit. Crossfire is an immersive experience that uses cutting-edge technology to place visitors inside a meticulously reconstructed farmhouse during the Battle of Gettysburg. Written by New York Times bestselling author Jeff Shaara, the script vividly brings to life what it was like for one Gettysburg family to be overrun by invading forces and trapped behind enemy lines during this harrowing event.
