Albert Einstein Memorial Review

This was one of those off the main stream tourist attractions that we found online and loved every minute of it. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Most the participants were local DC folks, which gave us a great "insider" view of DC. I would highly recommend this activity

We visited the Einstein Memorial in front of the National Academy of Sciences. The statue of Einstein was really cool and a great tribute to him. Similarly, etching stars and planets into level 4 was excellent. The only downside is the trash cans piled up around the monument and overflowing garbage. Other than that, it’s a really great statue!

Close to the Lincoln Memorial and the Vietnam War Memorial, the statue of Einstein is much larger than a real person, and many children climb up to take pictures.

The Einstein Memorial Hall displays photos of his various periods in his life, academic materials on relativity, and audio tape materials for class, etc., and the museum also roughly maintains the pattern of Einstein's residence.

Einstein, a Jew in Germany, fled to the United States during World War II and made great contributions to the American scientific cause.
