The National September 11 Memorial & Museum is a New York nonprofit organization that preserves and conveys the memory of the 2,983 people killed in the September 11, 2001 attacks and the 1993 bombing, along with those who risked lives to help others and those who showed compassion in the aftermath. Through commemorative exhibitions, educational programs, and outdoor tours, the institution provides historical interpretation and reflection for visitors and researchers, serving as a center for remembrance and learning. It operates within the museums, historical sites, and zoos sector and functions as a national memorial with a focus on education and public remembrance. Based in New York City, the organization is situated at 180 Greenwich Street in the Financial District, and engages a broad audience including the general public, students, and researchers seeking context around these events. In recent years, the Memorial & Museum has undertaken partnerships and program initiatives, such as collaborations with StoryCorps to record remembrances, and has launched audience-focused features like an outdoor audio guide to enhance visitor understanding of the events and memorial design.
