National Park Historic Site Must See

• ©

Minuteman Missile National Historic Site is the only National Park Service unit dedicated to the events of the Cold War and the Minuteman II missile system’s role in nuclear deterrence. The site consists of three locations- the Visitor Center, Delta-01 Launch Control Facility and underground Launch Control Center, and the Delta-09 Launch Facility (missile silo). Exhibits, ranger programs, and a site tour engage the public with nuclear deterrence and other topics within the Cold War time frame and its legacy.

Minuteman Missile National Historic Site is just one of the many highlights you can arrange to see using our custom trip planner, Philip Edition.
