The Snyder Farmhouse was a key landmark during the Battle of Gettysburg. Standing along the Emmitsburg Road, it became part of the Confederate advance during Pickett’s Charge on 3 July 1863. Farm buildings like this one shaped how soldiers moved, fought, and sought cover, turning civilian homesteads into battlegrounds.
For wargamers, the Snyder Farmhouse brings that history to the tabletop. Printed here in 40mm, it has the size and detail to act as a striking centrepiece in any American Civil War collection.
Historical Use
