Designated by Congress in 2004 as America’s National WWII Museum, we remember these special dates, commemorating the fallen and honoring the WWII generation who helped preserve the freedom we enjoy today. 

The National WWII Museum is here to help you explore the history and lessons of World War II with your students. Utilizing an object-based learning experience, educational technology, and its world-class exhibits, the Museum uses its rich collection of artifacts, archives, and oral histories to take history beyond the pages of textbooks and into the hands of curious students.

Volunteerism is a core value at The National WWII Museum. Each day, our dedicated Volunteers connect with history and engage with visitors from around the world, all while being part of a community that values learning and remembrance.
