Description

Situated on the waterfront in historic Fall River, Massachusetts, Battleship Cove, a nonprofit maritime museum and war memorial, is home to the biggest and most diverse selection of preserved US Navy ships on the planet. It’s the commonwealth’s official memorial for the events of September 11, 2001, and the official veterans’ memorial for World War II and the Korean, Vietnam, and Persian Gulf Wars. Beginning with the opening of the battleship USS Massachusetts in 1965, the “Fall River Navy” has continued to grow. The vessels include the submarine Lionfish, destroyer Joseph P. Kennedy Jr., and PT boats 617 and 796. Having hosted nearly six million visitors from far and wide the world, Battleship Cove is without doubt one of the most well liked attractions in southeastern Massachusetts. It now stands on the threshold of a new era in its ambitions to modernize for the 21st century.
