Photograph of the Leister Farmhouse on Cemetery Ridge,
Headquarters of Major General George G. Meade during the Battle of Gettysburg

The photo is taken from the middle of Taneytown Road facing north. The extensive damage to the fences and the house is plainly visible, as are three of the dead horses that littered the farm. (see closeup) Today the house has been restored and is owned by the National Park Service. See more about the Leister house at Gettysburg
