Codori Farm

The Codori Farm is located just south of Gettysburg on the Emmitsburg Road. It is a well-recognized landmark with its distinctive two-story brick farmhouse and the barn with multiple cupolas. At the time of the Battle of Gettysburg, the 273-acre farm was owned by Nicolas Codori. On day three, the farm was right in the middle of the ill-fated assault that became known as Pickett’s Charge, where, following an hours long artillery bombardment, approximately 12,000 Confederates advanced across a mile of open terrain, including the farm. 500 confederate lay dead on the farm after the charge.
