They have done a phenomenal job at giving details as well as as the museum experience, using technology and remnants of 911 Really what happened for those too young to have been there and brings positive memories to those who experienced it

Very emotional visit and all I expected it to be , really brings everything back to the day this happened Staff were lovely ,especially the young lady who served us outside when we bought some items from the cart she worked on Anyone who visits New York should certainly go here and am sure they would feel the same

It was a difficult thing to see but, the museum itself is beautiful and feels respectful.

A somber but powerful visit it, everything has been designed and arranged with care and detail, would highly recommend even though in places it felt quite overwhelming due to reasons for the museum.

A paper guide would be very useful to plan and facilitate the visit, and conversations with the staff reveal this to be a common observation by visitors.

What you'll do

The 9/11 Memorial & Museum in New York City is a place of remembrance, reflection and historical understanding. Located at the former World Trade Center site, it documents the events of September 11, 2001, and their lasting impact through carefully curated exhibitions and original artifacts.

Inside the museum, exhibits present a detailed account of the day’s events, from the moments leading up to the attacks to their immediate and long-term consequences. Through a combination of recovered objects, multimedia displays and recorded testimonies, the museum highlights both the scale of the tragedy and the individual human stories behind it. Personal narratives from first responders, survivors and victims’ families provide insight into the courage, cooperation and resilience shown during and after the attacks.

Your visit ends at the 9/11 Memorial Plaza, where two large reflecting pools mark the footprints of the Twin Towers. The engraved names surrounding the pools honour the nearly 3,000 people who lost their lives, offering a calm and contemplative space in the heart of Lower Manhattan.

The 9/11 Memorial & Museum serves as both a historical record and a place for quiet reflection, ensuring the events of September 11 – and those affected by them – are respectfully remembered.
