The Manhattan Project National Historical Park is set to celebrate its 10th anniversary on November 13, 2025. The park, located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, plans to commemorate this milestone with a series of special events.
The Manhattan Project National Historical Park was established to honor and preserve the history of the Manhattan Project, the U.S. government’s top-secret initiative during World War II that developed the atomic bomb. The park spans three states, with sites in New Mexico, Washington, and Tennessee. The Oak Ridge location was crucial to the project as it was here that uranium was enriched for the first atomic bomb.
The 10th-anniversary celebrations are not only a significant milestone for the park but also for the city of Oak Ridge and its historical importance. The special events planned throughout the day will provide an opportunity for visitors to learn more about the Manhattan Project and its impact on the world. More details on the events can be found on the National Park Service’s website.
