The National WWII Museum was once again named among the top museums in the nation and the world in the 2018 TripAdivsor Travelers’ Choice Awards, ranking No. 3 in the United States and No. 8 in the world.

The National WWII Museum is on the cusp of its 15th Anniversary, and as staff members prepare for the occasion, they’re also celebrating an extraordinary new record – 73,449 Museum visitors in March 2015, a 31 percent increase from March 2014. This new high point for attendance in a single month comes on the heels of two recent achievements for the Museum – more than 515,000 visitors in 2014, a 14 percent increase from the previous year, and the opening of the latest pavilion on the growing campus, Campaigns of Courage: European and Pacific Theaters.

Stutthof concentration camp was among the sites of horror caught up in this gruesome crescendo to Adolf Hitler’s war for racial supremacy.

A highlight of some of the best programs the Museum has hosted over the years on our home state Louisiana.

The National WWII Museum’s live theater venue, BB’s Stage Door Canteen, today announced its 2016-2017 season featuring a new dynamic male vocal trio, a tribute to beloved Bob Hope and a debut production honoring WWII factory worker turned Hollywood star Marilyn Monroe. The thrilling season lineup serves as a tribute to the men and women who entertained the nation’s troops, while offering a unique opportunity to share the culture of the WWII era with new generations.
