Gettysburg Municipal Building / Police Department

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.
