WWII Museum

The WWII Museum in Munda is a military history museum displaying equipment, photographs, documents, and personal items from American and Japanese forces engaged in Pacific naval operations. The collection features artifacts recovered from local battlefields and provides insight into the scale of operations in this region.

The collection documents military combat between Allied and Japanese forces that took place from 1942 to 1945 in the Solomon Islands. These artifacts tell the story of the Pacific War from a local perspective.

The museum displays photographs and accounts from local people who experienced the occupation and supported the Allies during the war. These personal stories show how the islanders lived through the global conflict.

Visitors receive guided tours in English from local experts who explain the military context and point out battlefields around the Munda peninsula. The tours are designed to provide deeper understanding of what happened in the area.

The collection includes identification tags, ammunition, and equipment recovered from an American M5 Stuart tank found near Enoghai battery. This tank is one of the most notable pieces in the collection and shows the type of vehicles used in the region.
