About Titan Missile Museum

The Titan Missile Museum preserves complex 571-7, a Titan II intercontinental ballistic missile site. It is the last of 54 such sites that stood on alert across the United States between 1963 and 1987. Visitors can take a guided underground tour of the silo and control areas, which includes a launch simulation, or walk the self-guided topside display yard. The site is a National Historic Landmark and shows how the United States prepared to deter nuclear war during the Cold War. Reservations are required for the underground tour, and visitors must be able to manage 55 stairs because there is no elevator to the silo.
