National WWI Museum and Memorial
The National World War One Museum in Kansas City tells the story of a huge war that happened over a hundred years ago. A tall stone tower called the Liberty Memorial rises high above the building.
It is famous as the top museum in the country about that war, with real planes, uniforms, and a glass bridge over a field of poppies. Visitors can ride to the top of the tower for a grand view of the city.
