The mission of the Battleship New Jersey Museum and Memorial is to restore, preserve, and exhibit the continuing history of the USS New Jersey and those who worked and served on her so their service will continue to educate and inspire future generations. The Museum regularly ranks as one of the best museums in NJ, one of the best things to do in Philadelphia, and serves as an entertaining attraction in New Jersey for families. Not only do you see exhibits of artifacts from the largest battleshipโs past, but you are put into the exhibit as you go through the tour route. Sit in the chair from which Admiral Halsey commanded the longest battleship and the 5th Fleet. Stretch out on the bunks where the sailors slept. Climb into the 16โ gun turret and learn how the projectiles were loaded. The Battleship New Jersey Museum and Memorial provides an up-close look at our nationโs military history. Guests of all ages and interests will enjoy their visit to this floating U.S. Navy Museum of our nationโs largest battle ships ever built. From World War II to Korea, Vietnam and active duty during the 1980s, this is among the canโt-miss U.S. Navy Museum ships open to the public today.
