Why You Shouldn’t Miss This

The September 11 attacks were one of the most devastating incidents of the last two decades. Nearly 3000 lives were lost, and over 6000 were injured during this calamity. The 9/11 Tribute Museum is a project of the September 11th Families’ Association. It was opened on the 6th of September, 2006, across the street from the World Trade Center site. Presently, however, it has moved to 92 Greenwich Street. The Association aims to unite victims of terrorism through peer groups, representation, and communication. With this in mind, the guided tours are conducted by survivors, families of victims, rescue and recovery workers, and Lower Manhattan residents who experienced it firsthand. The museum has three floors and eight galleries, each of which is dedicated to a different aspect of the attacks.

Your Experience

The tour will begin with a brief history of the World Trade Center. You will learn about the 9/11 attacks and its impact on the lives of New York residents and America as a whole. You will also visit the September 11 Memorial Plaza. The Plaza is filled with white oak trees that impart a sense of serenity and peace. You can also see the Firefighters Memorial Wall, dedicated to all the courageous firefighters who put their lives on the line to save hundreds of people during the attacks.
The trained guides are those who have had personal experience during the 9/11 attacks.
