The Importance of Culp's Hill in the Battle of Gettysburg 

Join Charlie Fennell, Licensed Battlefield Guide in Gettysburg, as he bring us up to date on the story of Culp’s Hill.
Relive the battle at Culp’s Hill, site of the most sustained fighting during the Battle of Gettysburg. Both sides recognized the importance of the hill, which guarded the main Union supply line on the Baltimore Pike.
In the aftermath of the battle, this site was photographed and soon preserved, and was frequently visited by veterans, who placed markers on this end of the Union defensive line.
Why do visitors today not flock to this significant site to hear the stories of the action there? Trace the site’s development, changes, and proposed restoration.
