The Wall of Names is a key feature of the Flight 93 National Memorial, which honors the passengers and crew of United Airlines Flight 93 who thwarted a terrorist attack on September 11, 2001.

The Wall of Names consists of 40 white marble panels, each inscribed with the name of a passenger or crew member from Flight 93, symbolizing their unity and sacrifice.

The wall is strategically positioned to follow the path of Flight 93 as it approached its final resting place, creating a poignant connection to the event.

The memorial is set within a 2,200-acre park that includes wetlands, forests, and fields, providing a serene backdrop for reflection and remembrance.

The Wall of Names was dedicated on September 10, 2011, marking the 10th anniversary of the September 11 attacks.

The design and construction of the memorial involved input from family members of the victims, ensuring it honors their loved ones appropriately.

Visitors can follow the Memorial Plaza, which includes interpretive panels and exhibits that tell the story of Flight 93 and its passengers.
