We realize you can’t come to visit us at the moment, so we’re bringing The National WWII Museum experience to you in a way we’ve never done before.

With the onset of COVID-19, the American public is facing an invisible enemy that is changing whole aspects of our lives.

At America’s National World War II Museum, we have always looked to our collections and galleries to find sources of inspiration and leadership: from everyday citizens doing their part to help defeat a common enemy to frontline leaders making tough decisions and personal sacrifices in the face of unprecedented challenges.

The National WWII Museum remains temporarily closed, but our work continues online.

To help protect the health and safety of our visitors, staff, and volunteers, The National WWII Museum will temporarily close to the public, effective Saturday, March 14.
