Formerly known as the D-Day Museum, The National WWII Museum is a military history museum dedicated to sharing the American experience during the second World War.

The permanent collections are housed inside a five-building complex, and highlights include a collection of restored WWII artifacts and an immersive exhibit known as the "Dog Tag Experience" that allows visitors to experience the emotions and sensations of going to war. There is also a theater in which visitors can view a 4D film for an additional fee. The museum is open 7 days a week, but is closed on all major holidays.
