Veterans Memorial Museum couldn’t have selected a better home! No other destination wears its patriotism as proudly as Branson, Missouri; it’s an authentic and sincere reverence for, and an appreciation of, the men and women who’ve unselfishly served our country in every branch of the military. The Museum honors these heroes with more than 2,000 exhibits that commemorate the American soldier and their sacrifices while serving in WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, the Persian Gulf, and more recent conflicts.
Veterans Memorial Museum is the heartfelt vision of renowned bronze sculptor, Fred Hoppe, who personally collected thousands of items that were put on display when the facility opened. Many items and exhibits have since been added as veterans and their families have loaned or donated items to the 18,000 square foot museum. Returning visitors will be thrilled to discover that Fred Hoppe’s stunning sculpture of 50 soldiers storming a beach (each represents an actual soldier) is back from storage and on display in front of the museum. Another of Hoppe's inspirational sculptures was purchased by the City of Branson; it now resides in the Memorial Garden at the corner of Highway 76 and Roark Valley Road for everyone to see as they enter Branson’s famous Strip.
The displays at Veterans Memorial Museum can be found in ten great halls, each covering a war or conflict fought. You’ll discover sculptures, artifacts, murals, memorabilia, and pieces of art thoughtfully arranged to tell the stories behind each item. A moving and emotional highlight of your visit is sure to be the names displayed on the walls of the halls; the actual names of soldiers killed in action during WWII, Vietnam, the Persian Gulf, and other 20th century conflicts.
