It was not written after the war. Lincoln visited Gettysburg in the autumn of the same year as the battle (1863) and gave his address then. Incidentally, he had written it hastily on the train, and was not satisfied with it.

The Gettysburg Address was delivered on November 19, 1863. The surrender of Robert E. Lee and his army which for all intents and purposes ended the US Civil War, occurred April 9 1865. That gives us One year, four months, twenty one days around about.

The last day of fighting was July 3, 1863. Unable to provoke an attack on July 4, which was rainy, Lee's forces withdrew and headed SW back to Virginia.
