Schmucker Hall (Old Dorm)
Old Dorm was the original campus building, completed in the summer of 1832. On the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg, the cupola on Old Dorm served as the lookout for the Union Army. For the remainder of the three day battle it served as the chief signal station of the Confederate Army. Old Dorm was a hospital for troops of both armies during, and after, the Battle.
Today, this building is the home of the Adams County Historical Society. |
