Experience the December 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor from the place bombs first fell on the fateful day. Discover how aviation began and defined the war in the Pacific, and rose out of the ashes of Pearl Harbor to inspire hope, redefine freedom, and galvanize a nation to overcome. Spanning two historic WWII-era hangars filled with aircraft, exhibits, and artifacts of the men and women who gave their lives for freedom, Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum offers a can’t- miss stop on your pilgrimage to Pearl Harbor. Be sure to add the Top of the Tower Tour to your experience - for the first time in decades, the Ford Island Control Tower. Guests ascend 168-feet up in a vintage elevator and are greeted with 360 view of the battlefield. The guided tour paints the picture of the attack: highlighting the flight path of the Japanese aircraft, sharing the stories of our heroes, and allowing for a moment of reflection and appreciation for those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.
