Welcome

The 9/11 Memorial & Museum is the country’s principal institution concerned with exploring 9/11, documenting its impact, and examining its continuing significance. Honoring those who were killed in the 2001 and 1993 attacks is at the heart of our mission.

Visit

The Last Column towers over Museum visitors gathered around it. The thirty-six-foot-tall steel beam is covered in pictures and tributes left by recovery workers at Ground Zero. Off to the left, visitors observe a river water valve that was recovered from under the World Trade Center.
Located at the World Trade Center in New York City, the 9/11 Memorial Museum tells the story of 9/11 through media, narratives, and a collection of monumental and authentic artifacts, presenting visitors with personal stories of loss, recovery, and hope.

During this temporary closure, we invite you to explore a host of offerings from home, view highlights from our Collection, and learn more about exhibitions. Read our MEMO blog for news, updates, and stories of inspiration and hope.

The 9/11 Memorial & Museum is committed to providing ongoing resources for students, teachers, families, and the general public.

By providing a host of educational resources—including activities for kids at home and the Anniversary in the Schools webinar—and a variety of free public programs, the Museum strives to foster a deeper understanding of the continuing impact of 9/11 and terrorism on America and the world at large.

Two people have each placed a hand on a bronze parapet at the Memorial. They are next to about a dozen white roses that have been placed at the names of victims.
Each day we remember the victims, the families, and survivors dealing with loss, recognizing the lasting consequences of 9/11 on individual lives.

We actively engage with 9/11 family members, survivors, and rescue and recovery workers to offer services, education, and moments of connection and healing. Join us on May 30 for a special digital commemoration.
