About

Located on the historic New London waterfront, a free National Coast Guard Museum is being constructed to celebrate the tremendous impact the U.S. Coast Guard has had through the centuries and will honor the service of the highly trained men and women who perform their missions with honor, respect, and devotion to duty. More than 200 galleries and exhibits will engage visitors to learn about the Coast Guard’s rich 232-year history and highlight its current impact around the globe. Through interactive and immersive experiences and state-of-the-art exhibits including more than 600 artifacts and 5,000 images, visitors will be captivated as they learn of our Coast Guard and our Nation’s maritime story. A dedicated STEM Lab, special events, leadership programming, and virtual exhibits will allow visitors to solve real-world problems and understand how the Service meets the challenges of today and prepares for those of tomorrow.
