The 9/11 Memorial remembers and honors the 2,983 people who were killed in the horrific attacks of September 11, 2001 and February 26, 1993. The design, created by Michael Arad and Peter Walker, consists of two reflecting pools formed in the footprints of the original Twin Towers and a plaza of trees.

The 9/11 Memorial Museum displays monumental artifacts linked to the events of 9/11, while presenting intimate stories of loss, compassion, reckoning, and recovery that are central to telling the story of the 2001 and 1993 attacks and the aftermath.

Super toffe rondleiding gehad door een heel goede gids ! Speciaal voor mijn man een hek weggedaan zodat ik hem kon fotograferen bij een voertuig waarmee hij in Congo veel heeft rond gereden. Heel erg ... more »

Super cool tour had by a very good guide! Especially for my husband so that I could photograph a fence gotten rid of at a vehicle which he drove around a lot in the Congo. Thank you very much!

Dit museum is een getrouwe weergave van wat er toen in onze streek afspeelde. Zeer mooi en prachtig opgebouwd een streling voor het oog. Het bewijs dat er met niets ontziende passie aan gewerkt wordt.... more »

This museum is a faithful representation of what was going on in our region. Very beautiful and wonderful built up a delight for the eye. Proof that there is with ruthless passion to work. Highly recommended to visit and to support the project. This is a private initiative and earned praise, do so.

Vriendelijke en gastvrije ontvangst. Vooraf gaande aan de rondgang kregen we een duidelijke intro en toelichting over de gebeurtenissen die zich in de Zwinregio en Zeeuws-Vlaanderen hebben afgespeeld bij de bezetting en tijdens de bevrijding. De opzet van het museum en de getoonde verzamelstukken zijn erg goed weergegeven en tentoongesteld. De inrichting van de gangen en entrees bij de presentaties en diarama's zijn erg natuurgetrouw geconstrueerd. Zeker de moeite om dit (redelijk) kleine museum met 3 indrukwekkend weergegeven privé verzamelingen aan te doen.

Friendly and welcoming reception. Prior to the round we got a clear intro and explanation of the events that occurred in the region and have played at the Zeeuws-Vlaanderen occupation and during the liberation. The design of the museum and the shown collector items are very well displayed and exhibited. The decor of the hallways and entrances at the presentations and diarama's are very true to life. Certainly bother to (reasonably) small museum with 3 impressive showing private collections.
