Frequently asked questions
About the experience
What will I see inside the Museum?
Two core exhibitions. September 11, 2001 covers the events of the day, what led up to them and what followed. In Memoriam honors the 2,977 people killed in the attacks and the six killed in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
You will also pass through Foundation Hall, plus whichever special exhibitions are running during your visit.
How long should I plan for?
The Museum recommends 45 to 90 minutes. Add extra time for security screening at the entrance, and more again if you are taking a guided tour.
Is it suitable for children?
There is no minimum age, and children aged 6 and under enter free, though they still need a ticket. The Museum advises that the historical exhibition may not be appropriate for visitors under 10, and asks accompanying adults to use their judgment before going in.
Is there an audio guide?
Yes, but it is rented separately at the box office or the audio guide desk in the Concourse Lobby. It is available in nine languages, including ASL, and includes a tour narrated by Robert De Niro.
Are guided tours included?
No. Guided tours run 45 to 60 minutes and cost extra. Outside tour guides and lectures are not permitted inside the Museum.
Can I take photographs?
Personal photography is allowed in most of the Museum, without flash. Photography and recording are not permitted in the historical exhibition, the memorial exhibition or the auditorium. Professional equipment requires prior authorization.
What is the Survivor Tree?
A Callery pear recovered from the World Trade Center site after the attacks. It was nursed back to health off site and replanted on the Memorial plaza, where it still stands.
