The Gettysburg National Military Park Museum & Visitor Center, home of the Gettysburg Cyclorama and the Gettysburg Museum of the American Civil War, announces new hours of operation starting Saturday, May 1, 2021.

The Museum & Visitor Center has been offering visitors reduced hours since reopening its doors on June 25, 2020, and again on Jan. 7, 2021, after temporary closures for precautionary measures to limit the spread of the coronavirus, consistent with federal and state officials’ COVID-19 protective mitigation measures and guidelines.

Beginning Saturday, May 1, 2021, the Gettysburg National Military Park Museum & Visitor Center opens daily. The new hours of operation provide visitors access to the Museum & Visitor Center seven days a week from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m.

The health and well-being of our visitors and community come first, and we look forward to continuing to welcome guests to the Museum & Visitor Center daily. Summer hours are expected to be announced in May.
