Visit the oldest museum in Gettysburg! Learn the story of the only civilian to be killed during the Battle of Gettysburg. Authentically furnished from cellar to attic, the Jennie Wade House is a shrine to Jennie and to life during the American Civil War. Beyond the battlefield's thunder, this quiet home whispers the poignant, personal tragedy of Gettysburg's only civilian casualty—a life extinguished mid-morning by a stray bullet. Just 20 years old at the time of the Battle, Jennie was kneading dough in the kitchen when a rifle bullet pierced two doors and claimed her life.
Artifacts from that fatal day in 1863 are on display as well, including the artillery shell that punctured the roof of the house and a floorboard with Jennie’s blood still on it.

Nice tour of the house and events that took place there during the Battle of Gettysburg. Short 45 min tour but very informative by a knowledgable tour guide. A worthy addition to a Gettysburg experience

The Jennie Wade House looks tiny from the outside, but is bursting with Gettysburg history. The story of this home will leave you asking for more! The guides are knowledgeable and encourage questions!

The story of Jenny wade is a tragic one but one that I’m glad I went and took a tour of. She was the only civilian tragedy of civil war and I never even knew about her before the tour. Tour guide was excellent and the way she told her story I will not forget
