The National Medal of Honor Museum opened in Arlington in 2024, dedicated to the stories of every American recipient of the Medal of Honor — the country's highest military decoration, awarded to fewer than 3,600 people since it was established in 1861. The museum uses digital and immersive exhibits to tell individual stories in depth rather than presenting the collection as a catalogue of names and battles.
The building sits in the entertainment district close to Globe Life Field, making it easy to combine with a game-day visit. The content is serious and sometimes moving; the emphasis is on the character and choices of the individual recipients rather than military glory, which makes it a more thoughtful experience than the location might suggest.
Located on E Randol Mill Road near the Texas Live entertainment complex.
