Gettysburg National Cemetery

November 21, 2020, marks the 18th annual Remembrance Day Illumination, a commemoration of the Gettysburg National Cemetery dedication in Nov. 1863. This year, the Gettysburg Foundation is paying tribute virtually.

Join us as we continue the tradition with a virtual reading of the names of the fallen Civil War soldiers interred at the Gettysburg National Cemetery.

The Gettysburg Foundation is thankful for all who volunteered, donated sponsorships, made plans to attend and continue to make the commemoration ceremonies a moving and inspirational tribute.
