This augmented reality experience recreates Robert E. Lee and James Longstreet conferring on the porch of the Mary Thompson House, which served as Lee’s headquarters during the Battle of Gettysburg. Lee established his headquarters on the property on the evening of July 1 and, over the next several days, conferred there with Longstreet and other officers about the direction of the battle. On July 2 and 3, the surrounding area on Seminary Ridge became an important Confederate position and was occupied by Confederate artillery.
