National World War II Museum
The National World War II museum opened back up on Memorial Day. The museum is open daily from 9:00 am – 5:00 pm. Right now, it is recommended to buy tickets online since the museum is operating at limited capacity. New safety measures to keep the community safe include social distancing guidelines throughout pavilions and galleries, and enhanced sanitizing and cleaning protocols. Throughout the initial phase of reopening, most galleries, exhibits and experiences will be available with controlled attendance to allow for social distance between visitors, especially within galleries. To help ensure public safety and avoid crowds, timed ticket purchases will be required. It is strongly recommended that visitors pre-purchase Museum admission online in advance.
