Set in the town of Gettysburg, this monument marks the ground connected with Abraham Lincoln's address on November 19, 1863, at the dedication of the Soldiers' National Cemetery. Edward Everett gave the main oration that day, and Lincoln's remarks, roughly 270 words, followed it. Lincoln drafted the speech largely in Washington and reportedly made final revisions at the David Wills House, where he stayed the night before. The brief speech became one of the most quoted in American history, and the site invites visitors to consider how a few minutes of remarks came to define the meaning of the battle fought four months earlier.
