Vietnam Memorial, War memorial at Penn's Landing, Philadelphia, United States.

The Philadelphia Vietnam Veterans Memorial at Penn's Landing is an amphitheatre plaza whose south wall is etched in granite with the names of 648 Philadelphia servicemen killed or missing in Vietnam. Ten panels depict scenes from the war's beginning to the 1975 rescue of Vietnamese refugees. Local architect Perry M. Morgan's design won a national competition over 102 entries.

The memorial was dedicated in 1987, listing 630 Philadelphia servicemen killed or missing in the Vietnam War. Local architect Perry M. Morgan's design was chosen from 102 entries in a national competition. A seven-year restoration made it more accessible, and it was rededicated in 2015; two more names were added in 2016, bringing the total to 648.

The memorial lists 648 Philadelphians killed or missing in Vietnam, and ten granite panels trace the war from its start to the 1975 rescue of Vietnamese refugees. The Philadelphia Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund maintains the site and runs education programs about the war, and commemorative programs are held here for those lost.

The memorial is located at the corner of Front and Spruce Street and is easily accessible on foot. Public transportation and parking options are available nearby, with no restrictions on visiting at any time.
