Great Experience Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

The museum is small, but a perfect size for the timeframe. The images and artifacts are very powerful as well as the stories behind them. It was one of the best experiences of our trip to NY and well worth the time and money.
Extremely interesting, with lots of emotions Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

We very much enjoyed the Ground Zero Museum Workshop. It was a very enriching experience and we recommend it to those who want to learn about what happened on 9/11. Requiem, the book of Gary Suson, is really worth buying. Sometimes, the emotions that come out of the book are even stronger than the ones you experience at the Museum itself. One little downside : The Museum is extremely small and people should be warned in advance of what to expect : a video and explanations about real life events. We had our two small children with us (3 years and 15 months). Despite the fact that they did behave very well given their young age, the requested silence and the small room in which the Museum is set up ( a living room basically), one woman looked at my 15 months daughter who was crawling on the floor without no sympathy whatsoever as though we were disturbing her in her review of the Museum. Very disappointing....
A poignant, initimate, inspirational experience. Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

This experience MUST NOT be missed. It was the highlight of my weekend in New York and will stay with me forever. The exhibition is beautifully and sensitively put together and allows you to experience a real intimacy with the situation without it being voyeuristic. The tour guides are gentle and wonderful. The overwhelming spirit of sheer love and loyalty - particularly the Band of Fathers - is both humbling and uplifting. I am from the UK and was visiting New York to meet up with my daughter for the weekend before we both went home. This exhibition was made the more significant for the both of us as I hadn't seen her for more than seven months as she had been travelling. I bought Gary's book for my husband and he and I shall return to New York so that he can experience the exhibition for himself. Thank you.
Very touching Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

Thank you for putting together such a touching memorial of this terrible attack. I signed up via the internet (found out about it via web surfing). I took my 14yr old nephew. We were both thankful for the opportunity to learn more of the stories of this time. Although it is not a typical 'feel-good' type of experience...it is one everyone visiting NY should experience. It reminded us of the good that is found in so many others...to be grateful for every breath that we take...every day is a gift from above. My nephew and I learned alot from this visit; we will certainly encourage others to visit. Thank you for your touching tribute. May God bless you for your efforts, and all the families of those lost that day.

The Ground Zero Workshop/Museum is a vital part of the history of what happened on 9/11. It's a small and intimate tribute to those firefighters who not only gave their lives while trying to save people, but to their "brothers and sisters" who worked their hearts out in the lengthy post-collapse recovery efforts. With sound clips from FDNY radios to the crosses and Star of David cut from steel beams to a section of airplane, plus many other items from the tragedy as well as incredible photos, visitors are "up close and personal" with artifacts and memories. This museum offers a tactile experience as well as viewing with only the eyes. There is nothing like it in the world, and it should be on everyone's "short list" of places to visit in New York City.
High-impact, emotional tour! Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

You cannot visit this museum and walk away the same person. Beautiful, aweful, inspiring - it's easy to run out of adjectives to describe this place. Nobody on our tour walked out of the room with dry eyes. I recommend without any hesitation.

Simply Stunning Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

This small museum was somewhat difficult to find, small, and a bit cramped. All that said, this was the most unbelievable thing we did in NYC. This was our first trip, and very little can top seeing the Statue of Liberty for the first time, but this museum did it. We bought a few posters from the museum, and when we unwrapped when we returned home, my wife and I could still barely talk about them without getting choked up. This was a life-changing two hours and nothing we saw topped it - period.
One of the best museums in NYC!!! Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

Having previously visited New York on a couple of occasions we were looking for something new, and were very impressed by the reviews of the Ground Zero Museum Workshop. The reviews were right; this is a very well thought out and compassionate dedication to the 9/11 victims and recovery workers.
Lots of factual information on Ground Zero Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

Our efforts to find the Ground Zero Museum were indeed rewarded. The two hour tour of the museum was very informative and I highly recommend this to visitors to New York. The photos and artifacts gives a good feeling of what it must have been like to be part of the rescue operations - a very emotional experience as well.
Excellent photography Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

The many photographs give you a sense of what the recovery process entailed during the aftermath of 9/11. Particularly poignant were the photos of the retired firemen who had lost their sons in the tragedy.
It was very sincere and moving Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

I actually live here in NY and my cousin was visiting from Germany and she actually found out about the museum on the internet. I had heard nothing about it. My brother is fireman and was involved with 911 and thankfully one of the fortunate ones. My heart goes out to all those families and you have done a wonderful job in displaying some of the stories so that we'll always remember those who have passed but never forget the tragedy . Thank you for enlightening me and making me remember all the good that came from that terrible evil. Nicole Sudberg (mother) 43 daughter Corinne 20 and cousin visiting from Germany Galtana 22
Lots of individual stories. Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

This musuem is one room with photographs and some ground zero artifacts. Everyone is given headphones with a pre-recorded guide for each picture/group of artifacts. The pictures are mostly of the aftermath/clean-up of 9-11. Very thought provoking images and some you will have seen before. The pre-recorded guide is interesting in that it describes the picture and then usually gives information about what was going on in the picture and the name of the people in the picture. When I first went in, I thought one room? What's up with that? But there is about 100 items to listen to/ look at. This exhibit really is about telling the story of the people affected by 9-11. I think it is worth the visit and definitely worth the price. It is also capped at 25 people (I think) so there is not a mob in there pushing to see everything. The owner has his book and pics for sales. He came in about halfway through our visit and was delighted to sign books, pictures, have his picture taken with anyone and talk about his photos. This is not an exhibit about the mechanics of the attack. For example, there is no map showing the positions of the building or where the planes hit and that kind of thing. I would recommend it if you are interested in the human side of what happened.
