Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: April 8, 2007
Caption: The Devil's Den
Additional Description: One of many noted locations on the Gettysburg battlefield, the Devil's Den was the scene of heavy fighting on the second day of the battle. For the most part it is a typical rock outcropping, much like any other in this part of Pennsylvania. But during the battle, bitter fighting in and around the location immortalized the name forever. Many famous photographs of the casualties of the battle were framed around the Devil's Den. As indicated, the stone for the marker was relocated from the Devil's Den.
