Flight 93 National Memorial, National memorial park in Stonycreek Township, Pennsylvania, US.
Flight 93 National Memorial is a national memorial site in Stonycreek Township in Pennsylvania that spreads across open countryside. The grounds include a visitor pavilion with glass and concrete walls, a Memorial Plaza with a Wall of Names, and a raised overlook above the open field.
The site marks the crash of United Airlines Flight 93 on September 11, 2001, when 40 people resisted the hijackers. The national memorial opened officially in 2011 and was built through donations and federal funding.
The Tower of Voices holds 40 wind chimes that produce musical notes in memory of each passenger and crew member. The sounds shift with wind direction and strength, creating an audible moment of reflection.
The walking path leads from the visitor center along paved trails to the Memorial Plaza and open overlooks. Visitors should plan several hours to explore all areas and view the exhibits inside.
The Field of Honor includes 40 memorial groves with over 136,000 native seedlings planted by volunteers across roughly 490 acres (198 hectares). Each grove grows as a living memory of one of the people on board.
