The Tennessee Wings of Liberty Museum aspires to honor the legacy of service and sacrifice of every American who served in the units that call Fort Campbell home. Through public-private partnership, the Fort Campbell Historical Foundation is advancing the stories of the 101st Airborne Division, 5th Special Forces Group, and 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, helping visitors learn more about Fort Campbell’s rich military history.
The museum will be open to the public, with a large gathering atrium and future meeting center to hold military and community events. The 33-acre campus will host aircraft displays and other outdoor artifact collections along a landscaped Memorial Park walking path. The interior museum will house interactive exhibits and artifacts dating back to the origins of Fort Campbell and its aviation units, telling stories of soldiers and military campaigns throughout history. The museum will be curated by the U.S. Center of Military History.
Concrete Construction
The exhibit hall is constructed as a tilt-up concrete wall system, with a steel truss and roofing system to complete the structure and enclosure. The exterior look will remain finished concrete, with some accent staining color and large entry signage. The large entry atrium will feature floor-to-ceiling glass storefront windows for clear viewing of the entrance from the parking lot. A separate education center is slated for a future second phase.
