The Cyclorama Building was a modernist concrete and glass Mission 66 building in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, United States. It was dedicated November 19, 1962, by the National Park Service (NPS) to serve as a Gettysburg Battlefield visitor center, to exhibit the 1883 Paul Philippoteaux Battle of Gettysburg cyclorama and other artifacts, and to provide an observation deck (replacing the 1896 Zeigler's Grove observation tower). The building was demolished in 2013.
