Today, it's the police department and municipal building, but it was originally the county jail. During the battle, there are records that describe the death of three prisoners: two by execution, one by suicide. There is said to be at least one spirit who remains in the building.

5

Adams County Court House

This building was constructed just 4 years before the Battle of Gettysburg, and served as a hospital during and after the battle. The seats were removed to create an open room that was used as an operating room, with surgeons operating in front of other soldiers. All the trauma left and imprint on the building.
