International Village (Gettysburg, Pennsylvania)

International Village was a small amusement park, shopping, dining and entertainment center located on the south side of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.

Conceived and built by Richard L. Michael of Timeless Towns of the Americas,[1] International Village was in operation from 1970 to 1980.

[2] The internationally themed shops included Das Gift Haus, Casa Del Oro, The Chinese Chalet, The Old Peddler, Far East Photo World, and Ye Village Toy Vendor.

Goods such as imported cigars, collectible plates, oil paintings and international dolls were available.

The shops remained open a few years longer than the rides, while struggling to compete with other tourist attractions in Gettysburg, including its battlefields.
