This is one of the most incredible military museums period!!! They have almost every gun and vehicle used throughout military history all on display and it doesnt cost a dime to go! Totally worth checking out if your in Oklahoma City or even worth a trip out to see. The whole city has tons of other attractions but this should be towards the top of your list to check out. The museum doesnt seem that large from the outside, but much like the TARDIS, once inside its so much larger. It just seems to keep going and going! There is hours and hours worth of stuff to read and take in throughout the museum. Even if youre not a person of military interest or a huge history buff this museum is still super fascinating and has pieces of history you wouldnt see anywhere else. There are even heirlooms from Hitler himself which is worth seeing alone! After one visit, Im dead set on going back. My wife and I had an amazing time visiting and taking pictures with all of the military vehicles and you will too!!

Was a very good place. They have many iconic arms and plenty of obscure ones. The vehicles outside are pretty interesting.

This place is awesome. Tons of stuff to see, lots of history to learn, great for father and son days or family field trips. I am not sure how big it is but it feels huge with all of the displays which are informative and well maintained. The military vehicles outside are also really cool, they give you a sense of size of just how big the tanks and armored vehicles are. Cant wait to bring my dad!

One of the best war museums weve ever been to. So thorough.

My daughter and I love this place. Its extremely well done and the volunteers are very helpful. The items from Hitlers apartment are fascinating as is the large weapons collection from all our major conflicts.

Such a cool place to visit. And its free!! My 10yo made so many connections with his schooling from this year and was blown away when he saw one of Hitlers capes. History buffs could spend hours; those just perusing will be interested in their well put together displays for a good hour. It kept my 10 yos attention for a solid hour, which is tough to do! Definitely worth whatever time you have. And you cant beat free!

Loved everything about this place! Staff was wonderful and very helpful. My family really enjoyed ourselves.

I am an army veteran and am very proud of this museum. The 4th of July and veterans day ceremonies are always top notch. Keep up the great work.

This is a fantastic museum, especially for free. Plan for 4-5 hours to see everything. A VERY surprising amount of authentic relics.

This place is awesome, alots of stuff to look at and for someone that grew up on army base brings back memories and a great layout

Truly beyond all expectations. On our two days trip to Oklahoma, we were pondering over places we wanted to visit to get maximum out of our stay. We chose this as one of the places and it was worth. We got the entire history of freedom war, Mexican war, civil war, 1st WW, 2nd WW, Korean war, Vietnam war, and finally gulf war. The presentation, collections, and meticulous placement are too good. I think it is a must visit specially if you have school going kids.

Great place to take kids and to learn on history. Its inside and outside so there is plenty to see and the vets there are very friendly. I had an amazing time and will definitely go back there.

Awesome museum. One of the larger collection of small arms Ive seen, from Indian wars to more recent conflicts. Several Thompson and Berretta machine guns.

Not my first time here but it has some new things. I was a member of the 45th and recently my daughter joined so I brought my girls here so they could see some amazing history and understand the importance of the unit my oldest daughter just became a part of. The museum is outstanding in content. They cover every conflict the united states has been involved in with emphasis on the contributions of Oklahomans and specifically the 45th infantry. They have a huge section of maudlin cartoons from WW II. The weapons and uniforms are impressive from the revolutionary War all they way through the war in Afghanistan. The more interesting items to me were the many mundane and personal items belonging to Hitler. Like a tea set or a mirror they seemed so haunting to me. There is one room dedicated to the liberation of Dachau. Very moving. I really like this museum. Its free but asks for donations and the staff is knowledgeable about the subject matter and friendly. Outside the walking paths have vehicle and aircraft from the conflicts. Excellent.

Awesome museum free to go in and they do not ask for a donation just a box at the end of the museum and you can decide what it is worth. I have been to lots of old war museums but this has the heritage, pictures, artifacts, stats, vehicles, airplanes, helicopters, tanks, artillery, buttons, badges, medals, newspapers, Hitlers personal belongings, for every war from The American war to the Korean war. I could spend hours here telling you about everything thats inside and outside this museum. Just go and you will find out how awesome it is.

This place is amazing. I love it!

Great place to take the family best of all it was free and they had alot of ww2 stuff and hitler memorabilia it was pretty cool

Great place to go to, it has a lot of great exhibits and history on the 45th.

Very cool place to visit. They have tons of tanks to look at. The museum offers tours. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Museum is clean and well maintained. Ive been there a couple of times with people whove come to visit and are into tanks. Enjoy the pix!

Love the museum. Looking at all the different vehicles and telling stories to my child.

So many memories...so much History... SOo many beauty Boys and Up standing women. To be remembered here. Never for get those that made the way... So that you could be here today- T.I.

This place is awesome !! This is just a few pictures.

Great display of firearms, Sherman tanks, and a Sabre jet the counterpart to the Russian Mig 15 from korean war era. Good history and great gift shop!

As a retired Vet, it is always a worthwhile trip bringing my family here.

A very cool museum. Check it out if youre in the area, you wont regret it.

The army memorabilia and the actual planes and vehicles were amazing!

ABSOLUTE MUST! Enjoyed the many vehicles and collections the museum offered! I’d definitely pay to visit again. Definitely would visit again and spend more time reading about the vehicles. The place looks small on the outside but it’s huge!

Very interesting things to see. Great learning experience for kids about history. Many wars, Hitler & Concentration Camps, weapons, & so much more. Seeing these things make history more interesting to me & probably others too.

It was an amazing museum and had a bunch of cool items to view

Great museum! So much more than I was expecting.

Very cool place to see history. A genuine edition of Hitlers personal Mein Kampf is something everyone should see. To remember what we stopped in WW2.

Great place to visit! So much history!

One of the hidden gems of Oklahoma City. So much knowledge to be gained going here. The artifacts and items they have are numerous and one of a kind. Anyone in the city should think about visiting the museum. The 45th is the division who liberated Hitlers Berlin apartment as well as the Dachau concentration camp, so there are a lot of those items here. 10/10.

Very well kept up, nice place for both kids and adults.

Wonderful history lesson for me and the kids.

Need I say more. The greatest generation !

Its amazing the service was great... The best part is it is Absolutely free

We absolutely loved this place! My son is into Tanks, so he his mind was blown. They had them everywhere outside.

So much historic value. Much larger than it looks. Want to return without the littles

Its great and helps you to learn

Very large, lots of detailed exhibits. Most of this is awesome, some quite disturbing. History is history. The 45th Infantry Division was usually on the right side of history, even being instrumental in the liberation of Dacchu during WWII. Oh, and its free, although there are multiple ways to donate or support through gift shop purchases. Very knowledgeable docents.

Very interesting visit. Wonderful displays of time pieces during the many wars. A knowledge staff is there to answer any questions you may have and also a small gift shop. The displays are so well done, showing the different rifles, pistols, swords and bayonets from each era. Also a display of items taken from Hitler.

Lots to see and learn about. Better than just reading books.

Very extensive collection of military equipment and memorabilia from the Revolutionary War through the Afghan and Iraq wars, mainly focusing on the two World Wars. The highlight is the collection of Hitlers personal affects from his Munich apartment and Obersalzburg, its actually pretty incredible that you can see it for free in OKC. The outside exhibits with military planes and vehicles is really cool too. My only qualm is that I wish there was a little more of a narrative built into the layout, the museum is a bit less sophisticated in that regard, but it is a truly great collection of stuff.

I loved learning some of what Oklahomans did during the world wars.

A gem in okc. Go there, bring others.

Loved it, the gentleman that walked with us to tell us about the exhibits was very pleasant, would love to come again

Great place to see an the people working there went the extra mile to help you

On our way back from the Softball complex we stopped in to view the display of tanks, guns, and military vehicles. I am a Vietnam Veteran, and I got to see first had a lot of the equipment that was in use during my tour overseas. I enjoyed being able to go unclose to look at the various pieces of equipment. I really enjoyed being able to explain a lot of the equipment to my grandson. Hes seen picture and film of the gear, but had not seem it up close. It is an impressive display. The grounds are well cared for, and the equipment is clean, presentable, with great explanation of what they items are. Good job.

Awesome collection of 3rd Reich memorabilia!

It had a ton of cool exhibits and artifacts. The outdoor area was very cool with many different vehicles and artillery units. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and had served in Vietnam.

Very extensive museum. Great gun history collection.

Wonderful place to learn about world and state history.

Free. Cant beat that. Lots of awesome history on display. Fascinating stuff. Go at your own pace or we ever had a volunteer take us on a bit of a tour as our guide. Highly recommend you visit.

Love this Museum its Free of charge. Great exhibits both inside and out.

A very nice guy walked us thru and told us cool facts. Also lots of cool stuff outside.

Me and my kids really enjoyed our visit here!

Very extensive museum and grounds. Many pieces of armor and artillery, as well as support vehicles and aircraft operated by the Army. Docents provide background and answer questions.

Great attractions!!! Nice staff!!

Good place to visit in Oklahoma city. museum is well maintained & free entry.. We spent 3hrs my 5year kid explore it..

One of the best places to go in OKC. Lots of history and a lot to see in a small area, both outside and inside. Best part is that it is free admission.

Nice museum and its free! Interesting items on display and volunteers tell some of the history. Theres even some of Hitlers items there. Teenage daughter enjoyed the visit too.

Amazing collection and knowledge of all the legendary wars going back to the civil war. Was fascinated with all the world war II axis and allied rifles machine guns metals uniforms etc, just amazing!Free to get in but please dont be cheap, donate a little something at the desk when you walk in keep this place up and running and these timeless pieces available for viewing

What a great telling of the 45th Infantry. The gentleman who were at the museum were also full of rich history and I was glad I went.

Came across this museum by accident during my trip through Oklahoma and Im not going to lie, this place is amazing. A good selection of tanks, artillery, and other vehicles on the exterior. Inside, a plethora of military small arms and other equipment spanning multiple eras. My only complaint was that I was on a time crunch and did not have adequate time to properly view the entire exhibit. Free admission and parking, do not miss out on this gem!

Loved it good place to go to have fun

Very cool place to visit its free and great place for the kiddos if you like seeing military history collections

Absolutley love the place. So much to learn and explore!

Absolutely loved our time here. My son, an avid military fanatic, enjoyed just seeing everything while I absolutely loved reading all the history and stories.The one drawback for this time of year is the unchecked Yellow Jacket community on the ground. They own the tanks and make sure its known. We had to mind our distance a number of times.

This is a must see museum if your in the OKC area and interested in military history.

It was amazing, this museum opened my eyes to the harsh reality of war, it educated me on the weapons used and the minds of those who started wars, they have every weapon you could ever imagine from every corner of the world, it is a wonderful place to go if youre a weapons enthusiasts or a war historian, they have heavy armored ground weapons and a ton of air force, all of which is very easy to view, it is a very informal and nice experience, the man who ran it was very very friendly and loved to educate those who asked.

Great museum. If you want to check out some military history you should definitely stop by if you are in the Oklahoma City area

If you want a great study in American History through the portal of military conflict this museum is excellent. You can see impressive artifacts displayed throughout the museum. The period of WWII is super impressive. Take your time you wont regret it. Also the Bill Mauldin collection is amazing.

Awesome museum i spent nearly 2 1/2 hours there well worth and it was free. Donations are gladly accepted.

This was my first visit and I have to say this was a very educational place. The staff there were super friendly and knowledgeable! It seemed like you learned something around every corner. A hidden gem in okc!!

A wonderful collection of military history particularly that of the 45th Infantry. We have a relative that was part of the 45th on my husbands side so its always neat to visit and teach the kids about him and military history.

Truly impressive miilitary collection with weaponry that spans centuries, and a really knowledgeable, interesting, and friendly host/curator who showed me around - despite his views on climate change. Just because climate change has happened without human activity, doesnt mean human activity cant cause it! Highly suggested museum.

This is a great place for young boys to see military relics and history. Life size articles of the tanks and planes and cannons they might play with. Also girls if so interested. Good historical preservation though they probably need more donations to spruce them up from weather wear and tear. Some nice memorials also to those who served us in the military over time. Worth the visit especially if you are seeing other attractions in this area of town.

I researched fun hidden gems in Oklahoma to take my best friend (who was visiting from out of state) & this place was recommended. It was amazing! We spent hours there! It was amazing & also heartbreaking at times. My only recommendation would be to leave the little ones at home. Just so you can really soak in the whole experience. I cant wait to take my husband.

As a Infantry solider I had to stop here. Its free to enter they just ask for a donation.it took us about two hours to check the place out.

Traveled from the St Louis area. Easy to find from the highway/street.Outdoor portion - easy to transverse even with all the storms recently. Excellent display of vehicles, aircraft, etc.Indoor portion - we were greeted by a knowledgeable guide who explained the layout of the Museum which is quite larger than it appears. Filled with ALL sorts of military history and artifacts.Enjoyed the experience!

Great experience

Awesome place with a lot of military history .

Very interesting place, liked it alot!!!

Great museum. They have various tanks and aircraft from world war II, the Korean War, and Vietnam era outside the museum (probably 30-40 vehicles). Inside they have artifacts from basically the start USA to could military. Mostly weapons (pistols, rifles, knives, machine guns, etc) but they also have helmets and uniforms going back to world war I from various nations. Plus history about the 45th involvement in various conflicts.

Worth the stop. So much history and memorabilia.

Being a former army service member I always enjoy seeing military museums. They had an awesome display of equipment and artifacts! My boys absolutely loved going there and seeing everything.

We love looking at all the tanks and other things.

Great place to go back in time. Educational and fascinating to see all the artificats. Although the building looks small from the outside, it was spacious inside. Employees were very knowledgeable and willing to share the history of the building and artifacts.

This place is amazing! I cant believe Ive lived in Oklahoma my whole life and have never been here. I wanted to spend all day here but had a sleepy baby so we had to cut it short. Ill definitely be back. Its free but does take donations. It has so so much too see. Plus the building alone is awesome. If youre into history, military, weapons, etc its worth the visit.

Really cool museum and free to the public. The volunteers that run it are all really friendly and most, if not all, are veterans!

Wonderful place of history!

Very cool museum we got a history lesson from a wonderful volunteer, a gentleman who served our country in WW2. Great display I wasnt expecting to look into the mirror that Hitler himself gazed into.

Had a wonderful day, weather was perfect for examining outdoor displays. More people should take time and visit this world class museum.

Great display of military equipment. Incredible stuff like tanks, planes, guns, etc..

Very informative, low key, and theres so much to see

Alot is packed into this place. Great for military enthusiast.

This place is awesome. Excellent exhibits and knowledgeable volunteers.

This is one of the better military museums. There is info to appeal to anyone interested in histories about Oklahoma, minorities in the military, army, air force, civil war, WWWI, WWII, the holocaust, the dignities of public service, or the horrors of war. The content can be upsetting, especially when reviewing the displays on the holocaust and confederate history. The benefit of knowledge gained from visiting outweighs the sadness one might experience. There are so many static displays outside and these are more appropriate for children. This museum is rare for the details provided. It is worth a visit.

All the displays were just like they stepped out of a recent battle.
