A girder from the World Trade Center, known as the 9/11 Girder, is displayed at the Pentagon Memorial in Arlington, serving as a poignant reminder of the tragic events of September 11, 2001.
The girder was donated to the Pentagon Memorial by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey as a symbol of resilience and remembrance.
The Pentagon Memorial, where the girder is located, honors the 184 lives lost at the Pentagon on September 11, 2001, with 184 illuminated benches.
The girder serves as a tangible connection between the Pentagon and the World Trade Center, highlighting the shared impact of the attacks.
Opened on September 11, 2008, the Pentagon Memorial was the first of the three major 9/11 memorials to be completed, ahead of those in New York and Pennsylvania.
