The Eldred World War II Museum
This is the first location visitors to the Eldred World War II Museum encounter upon arriving at the museum. Visitors are greeted by the staff and are given a brief history of the museum as well as the National Munitions Company, a munitions plant that operated in Eldred, Pa. during World War II.
Visitors will encounter a life-like display honoring the contribution women made towards the war effort as well as munitions that were produced at the National Munitions Company. Flags of all the Allied nations hang from the ceiling, often surprising visitors that so many nations joined together to defeat the Axis Powers. Exhibits
