Fallen Firefighters Memorial, National memorial site in Emmitsburg, United States
The National Fallen Firefighters Memorial features a 7-foot stone monument with a sculpted Maltese Cross and an eternal flame at its base.
Congress established this memorial in 1990 as the national site to honor firefighters who died while performing their duties since 1981.
The Walk of Honor connects the main monument to the Memorial Chapel through a brick pathway inscribed with names of fallen firefighters.
Visitors must present identification at Building V1 for security screening before entering the memorial grounds, which remain open from sunrise to sunset.
The memorial includes a three-times life-size statue depicting firefighters raising the American flag at Ground Zero after September 11.
