Nestled within the historic site of the Battle of Gettysburg stands the State of Pennsylvania Monument. It is the largest monument on the Gettysburg battlefield with the entire structure, to the tip of the sword on the Winged Victory statue, standing at 110 feet high. Visitors to the monument can climb the monument’s granite structure via a spiral staircase and enjoy a view of the surrounding grounds through a lookout point.
The top of the monument also gives guests a closer look at the 7,500-pound statue that stands on top of the monument’s dome. Dedicated in 1910, the State of Pennsylvania Monument is a great stop to the itinerary of history buffs and the like.
