Access to the ship is good on the self-guided tour , and the posted explanations are very helpful. The more expensive guided tour includes some more access, like the flag bridge .
This 1944 battleship served in World War II, as well as the Korean and Gulf Wars. It was finally retired in 1991 and has since been entrusted to the Hampton Roads Naval Museum . (From Aerial America) Read more
Great place to get a glimpse of naval history. Be prepared that not all areas in the ship are climate-controlled (just like the heroes that lived and served on the ship experienced)
Visit a real battleship, a castle of steel. The Wisconsin is part of the naval museum in Norfolk and well worth a detour. A really historically relevant ship .
This is an incredible piece of American history. You can spend half a day wandering around this floating city . If you get the chance to visit don't skip it.
So interesting to tour and climb all around while learning history. Great photo opportunities as well .
Amazing ship and site in Norfolk. The staff is so informative and friendly . Totally a must see in Norfolk
Great ship . Take the guided tour . Former BB-61 sailor here so I will say there is one better in LA!!!
Impressive from the outside even if you don't have time to check out the Museum .
It was amazing to see how men and women live on these ships
If you are a Cub or Boy Scout, camp out overnight for an incredible experience.
