My Other Park: National Cemeteries at Gettysburg and Fredericksburg

My Other Park

Shake the winter blues by taking an “armchair” visit to three national parks guided by a Ranger who worked in “other parks” within the National Park Service. Decide if you want to add a new park to your bucket list.

National Cemeteries at Gettysburg and Fredericksburg – Ranger Gabby

National Cemeteries around the country serve as a tangible reflection of the ultimate sacrifice made by service members in battle. Learn about the history of two of these cemeteries at the sites of notable battles of the American Civil War, now maintained by the National Park Service at Gettysburg National Military Park and Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania National Military Park.

This is part of the Saturdays in the Park program series.

Join the National Parks of Boston for special topic programs on Saturday afternoons, January 11 through April 25, 2020.  It’s something different for the local crowd during the “off season”.

All programs are free and open to the public.

All programs take place in the Charlestown Navy Yard Visitor Center.
