The Plank Farm, owned by J. Edward Plank during the Civil War, is located west of Seminary Ridge in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The Plank farm is considered one of the most historical Gettysburg locations do to its central role across all three days of the Battle of Gettysburg (July 1–3, 1863) as well as its extensive use in the battle’s aftermath as a major medical facility. Throughout the battle, the farm’s buildings, including the barn, farmhouse, and outbuildings, played a key role for shelter as well as tending to the wounded. Today, the preserved Plank Farm site is a protected Historically Site, by the American Battlefield Trust, ensuring its legacy as part of the Gettysburg battlefield. It’s rich Civil War history included Soldiers from both the Union and Confederate armies traversed the land during the fighting. It served as one of the largest Confederate field hospitals in the area, treating over 1,500 wounded soldiers—including General John Bell Hood, who was injured on July 2. More than 500 of these patients were too severely injured to evacuate when Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia retreated, and the farm continued functioning as a hospital for weeks afterward.
