The Memorial Courtyard consists of thousands of plaques and brick pavers that families, individuals, organizations, or others have placed in honor of those men or ships (37 CVE individual ships are so honored) that served in the Pacific. Embedded in native Texas limestone walls, these plaques are professionally made and placed by the museum and through contributions Under our Convention Chair Sue Foley’s leadership, our September San toward the plaques help sustain the museum financially.

His home and family hotel are located on the southeast corner of the campus at Washington and Main Streets. The history of the hotel and Nimitz family, including young Chester, are featured in this building restored to its grandeur of the 1840-1850’s. The Pacific Combat Zone portion of the museum complex can round out your tour. If you have limited mobility, remember that this portion of the tour involves some walking to the complex and additional walking within the indoor/ outdoor Zone complex.
