The Eisenhower National Historic Site in Gettysburg, PA, preserves the only home that Dwight and Mamie Eisenhower ever owned. Purchased in 1950, the Eisenhowers used their Gettysburg home throughout their time in the White House, with their peaceful farm serving as a getaway from Washington, D.C., as well as an idyllic spot to bring world leaders to forge better connections between the U.S. and the rest of the world. Join Ranger Dan Vermilya for this program exploring the Eisenhower National Historic Site and its significance in the lives of Dwight and Mamie Eisenhower. This program will include both historic and modern photographs taking visitors through the grounds and buildings of the Eisenhower National Historic Site.
