The highly anticipated 9/11 Museum opened in May 2014 with a mission to “bear solemn witness to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and Feb. 26, 1993.” Encompassing 110,000 square feet, exhibits range from original artifacts and emotional stories of the people who lost their lives to multimedia displays. Visitors can walk down the very staircase used by workers to escape the fire on 9/11, read touching messages of remembrance, hear voicemail messages left by the victims to loved ones and more. Just make sure to bring tissues, as you’ll undoubtedly leave with a heavy heart.
