The unveiling of The Medal of Honor Museum at Patriots Point will signal the launch of the revived museum. Sponsored by the National Medal of Honor Center for Leadership, this renovation will showcase the stories of our nation’s heroes, Medal of Honor Recipients. The re-imagined space will open to the public on May 25, 2024.
The Museum, located on board the USS Yorktown at Patriots Point Naval & Maritime Museum in Mount Pleasant, SC, is the national 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. It was designated by Congress as an official National Medal of Honor Memorial site in 1999 but has been bringing the Recipients’ stories to life since 1994.
Activities on May 25:
Designed to bring the Recipients’ stories to life, the all-new immersive exhibits will take guests back in time to the Civil War through the War on Terrorism to highlight select Medal of Honor Recipients. Each section of the Museum features interactive activities and stories of heroism. Reflect on their stories and then build your own.
