Honoring Heroes

The National Liberty Museum is known as America's Home for Heroes. It honors 1000 men, women and young people of all walks of life who dared to step beyond their comfort zones to help make the world a better place... from world leaders to the firefighters and police who lost their lives on September 11, 2001.

Presenting Peaceful Ways to Resolve Conflict

With so much violence in the world today, it's important to experience a place in America that celebrates the alternative. The National Liberty Museum provides an array of hands-on exhibits that demonstrate easy, practical and fun ways to resolve conflicts peacefully.

Exploring the Concept of Freedom

For over 300 years immigrants from around the world have come to America seeking freedom and opportunities not available to them in their homelands. The National Liberty Museum developed a gallery called "Coming to America" as well as numerous exhibits on the rights and responsibilities of living in a free society.

Comparing Liberty to Glass

The National Liberty Museum is unique in presenting a collection of more than 100 world-renowned works of fine art which reflect its message. The overriding theme is the fragility of liberty, illustrated through contemporary art by artists from around the world.
