Ceremonial Entrance

The Ceremonial Entrance to the National Medal of Honor Museum (as viewed from AT&T Way). At the Museum’s Foundation, a gentle ramp guides visitors to a circular entry court, the Rotunda of Honor. Millions of visitors will begin their journey by entering the majestic Rotunda of Honor, a stunning space designed to awe Museum guests. Surrounding the Rotunda of Honor are five (5) Mega Columns to support the ‘floating’ steel exhibition space. In size and character, the Ceremonial Entrance and Rotunda of Honor will evoke a sense of reverence and prepare guests for their experiences in the Museum honoring those extraordinary Americans awarded the Medal of Honor.
