Wright Brothers National Memorial

Official Travel Stamp Decal

At this site on December 17, 1903, Orville Wright went airborne in an airplane. His brother, Wilbur, steadied the wings as the Wright Flyer rolled for takeoff. A tall granite monument and a bust of Wilbur honor the 12-second flight. Museum exhibits and replicas of buildings and aircraft tell the story of their historic achievement.
