The Medal of Honor Museum at Patriots Point
A Museum for the Extraordinary
The Medal of Honor Museum at Patriots Point is home to the Medal of Honor, the Recipients who wear it, and the values inherent in the Medal - courage, commitment, integrity, sacrifice, citizenship, and patriotism.
Explore how ordinary people can do extraordinary things through interactive exhibits that bring Medal of Honor Recipients' stories of heroism and sacrifice to life. Discover artifacts that tangibly connect the past and present. Put yourself in their shoes and walk in the footsteps of heroes.
Reflect on their actions “above and beyond the call of duty” and learn how embracing the Medal of Honor values can impact those around you and the world we live in.
The Museum is located on board the USS Yorktown at Patriots Point Naval & Maritime Museum in Mount Pleasant, SC.
