Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum

Excellent tribute to the citizens of Oklahoma City bombing along with victims and survivors. Very well put together museum and many exhibits the outdoor memorial is beautiful and serene. The state park ranger, Dan was very informative and helpful. The museum and memorial was a beautiful tribute to the perseverance of the state. Price was very reasonable and has a gift shop. Ticket lady was very nice. A great visit for a self tour, very well laid out. Very nice and clean restrooms. Very accessible

Still remember it like it was yesterday, as a senior in HS about to graduate. So sad and powerful to see the chairs, which represent approximately where the victims were in the building. Seeing all the small chairs of children that were in the daycare is heartbreaking. A well-done memorial that is ranger-patrolled for any questions or discussion about the event and venue.

Oh my! A solemn remembrance of a horrible event in recent history of the U.S. The creators of this museum were thoughtful and thorough with their interpretation of April 19, 1995. From "an ordinary day" until the present day, there are interviews, artifacts (large and small), pictures - anything you can imagine that describes the day, the weeks of search and rescue/recovery, the years of waiting for justice, what all mankind can learn from it- it's all there.

I especially liked how the outside memorial was planned; I believe it is an appropriate and meaningful way to remember those people who were killed.

May this memorial and museum continue to be a source of healing and understanding of the experience.

The designated parking garage is extremely small and hard to park, but other than that. This place is well laid out and done very well. The staff is all friendly and knowledgeable. If you're near here, stop and check it out. It is worth the stop at no matter age you are.

This was amazing! It's a must see if you're in OKC and you have about 3 hrs to go through it. It was very emotional going through this memorial museum. There were some younger kids there with their parents that had a hard time going through it. You can't help but want to cry and yet be angry that it happened in the first place. Definitely worth the time and money. They do have a parking ramp to park in.

My family started our OKC tourist day at the Oklahoma City Bombing Memorial, which was a pretty somber experience. The Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum was very well done, and really captured the anguish of that day in 1995.

The museum had numerous artifacts recovered from the rubble, as well as a shocking volume of items related to the investigation and subsequent execution of Tim McVeigh. The guy planned and executed the whole thing (almost) using a fake name. At bottom, if he hadn't screwed up and used his real name to order Chinese food from a hotel where he'd registered with his fake name, he'd likely have never been caught as there would have been no link to a real person. Good thing he wasn't as smart as he thought.

A particularly powerful part of the outdoor memorial was the empty seats - one large seat for every adult and one small seat for every child that died in the bombing. The number of small seats was heartbreaking. If you're ever in the area, this is a must see - just be prepared for an emotional experience.

Today was my first experience at the OKCMM and it had to have been the most moving and powerful experience I've had at a museum. I arrived before they opened and used the time to walk around the site soaking in every piece of tribute and honor. The experience begins as any ordinary day, only to be met with explosions as the next door opens showing the destruction and recovery efforts. The heartstrings are in constant motion reading every piece of information and seeing the pictures as if you were on scene for the events.

A couple times I had to move to a corner and breathe as emotions were in constant engagement. While there are exhibits detailing the men behind the attacks, this experience is truly focused on those who died and those who risked their lives in the recovery effort. The love and unity of Oklahoma, United States, and world truly shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it.

I highly recommend visiting this museum and to take your time going through the museum and grounds. This was my first time in OKC and I've experienced great museums and experiences, but this truly is a beacon of light and hope in the midst of tragedy. I will absolutely visit again anytime I am in the area.

Great memorial! We skipped through some of the museum as we were short on time but would highly recommend taking your time truly taking everything in and walking through the day like the museum was laid out and intended to. I do think the admission was a little high especially with it supposedly being a part of NPS system. The outdoor exhibit and memorial was also wonderfully done.

I was privileged to be shown around by an exceptional park ranger, Dan McKee. He described the solace of the moments. The past, present and future of the site. The inspiration for the architecture and design of the memorial was breath taking. If you are in the area this is definitely worth a visit. The grounds themselves are amazing and Dan is a wealth of knowledge.

A neat experience! It takes you back in time to the 90s and all of the chaos surrounding this event. It created a deeper connection with the lives lost that day. Well done!

A beautiful museum that is a remarkable tribute to the victims of the bombing in Oklahoma City. It's a very thorough display of all that happened on that tragic day. The staff are kind and helpful. I highly recommend a visit.

What a surreal feeling walking where a building once stood. If you are ever in Oklahoma City, stop by the National Memorial that commemorates the victims of the bombing on April 19, 1995. It is a beautiful Memorial and tribute to the strength of our country under tough times.

Beautiful memorial and museum to the tragedy there 19 years ago. We didn’t realize it was the 29th anniversary today when stoping in.

They do a great job with this difficult situation. The museum does a great job of showing the events from the time before the bomb all the way to the execution. It also tells the story of the heroes, survivors and victims. It was great to hear the stories but it is an emotional journey.

A moving memorial to those killed - to include context on the first responders. Very detailed information about how the terrorist was arrested and convicted.

Highly recommended to visit - also there is an adjacent parking garage - get your parking validated for free parking, too.

Beautiful, informative, and well thought out memorial and museum. The memorial is always kept clean and the museum is worth the visit. Depending on the day of the week there may be a field trip group going through the museum as well so I recommend ordering your tickets ahead of time, but even with people coming and going there is plenty of room to explore, read, and reflect. Highly recommend!

It is a breathtaking experience. The museum is very well made and the memorial is absolutely beautiful.

Such a somber place. From seeing the actual frame of the building to the empty chairs and the beautiful reflection pool. Access is easy and parking is available for being downtown. There’s a lot of homeless around but we didn’t feel intimidated or unsafe- police around the grounds

Was silent, interesting and sad that as humans we can do this kind of thing to each other. The significance of the numbered gates was a new way of looking at loss.

The entire Memorial and Museum is amazing, to say the least. Bring tissues. The details of the devastation and resilience of Oklahoma is shown in every aspect. The artifacts of the day are beautifully displayed, telling the story of a terrible event and the heroes who were there. True accounts of events are very emotional, and will never be forgotten. To the story tellers- thank you.
