| Description | Relive America’s military history when you visit USS ALABAMA Battleship Memorial Park. Located on Mobile Bay directly off Interstate 10 in Mobile, Alabama, the Park, with its mainstay, Battleship ALABAMA (BB-60), is America’s most unique military attraction.
Young and old alike will marvel as they walk the decks of the “Mighty A”, a World War II veteran, recipient of nine Battle Stars, and a National Historic Landmark. Also see and go below in the WWII Submarine USS DRUM (SS-228), America’s oldest existing submarine and also a National Historic Landmark.
"Calamity Jane,” a B-52 Stratofortress bomber, an A-12 Blackbird super-secret spyplane, more than two dozen historic aircraft from the past eight decades, naval vessels, and other military equipment make your visit exciting.
Relax in the award-winning rose garden, have a bite to eat in The Galley, and shop in our Ship’s Store Gift Shop. Open daily from 8:00am (closed on Christmas Day).
USS ALABAMA Battleship Memorial Park is a independent self-supporting agency of the State of Alabama that has never received any State funds for daily operations since opening to the public on January 9, 1965. More than 14 million visitors have trod the decks of the Battleship.
Come visit and join us as we honor and remember those Alabama and American Veterans from each branch of the United States Armed Forces who have and continue to sacrifice to defend our precious American freedom.
