Originally established on October 14, 1944 by women’s leadership organizations, the surrounding Wisconsin community wanted to create a memorial, a reminder of the sacrifice for freedom for those who served in World War II. Even though it has evolved with time, the War Memorial Center continues to symbolize the sacrifices made and battles fought by brave veterans through its design and mission.

The War Memorial Center, by design, is unique and unlike any other, designed by veteran and architect Erro Saarinen. Each of the building’s element, from its physical features to its orientation, carry significance, resembling moments from battle and reflecting places to ponder.

It’s mission–to honor the dead and serve the living–solidifies this profound symbolism. Within the building, instrumental veteran organizations and auxiliary programs operate to help the living and serve fellow brothers and sisters.

Hear the heartfelt stories of veterans Julian Plaster and Nick Gomez, and his family’s generational history of serving our nation. Pairing their brave sacrifice with resilience efforts by living and breathing organizations within the building, the War Memorial Center is unmatched; it’s a place to reflect upon our freedoms and a place to learn.
