The inscription, “Peace Eternal in a Nation United,” honors the unity and healing that followed the war, reminding visitors of the significance of national reconciliation after the devastating conflict.
- High Water Mark of the Rebellion Monument - The High Water Mark signifies the closest the Confederacy came to victory during the Battle of Gettysburg. Situated along the field where Pickett’s Charge occurred, it marks the spot where Confederate soldiers made a final attempt to break Union lines.

The monument serves as a reminder of the lasting impact of Lincoln’s address on the nation and its ideals, symbolizing the ongoing fight for freedom and unity.
