Beautifully made WWII Memorial overlooking nearby U.S. Naval Academy bridge which has a wonderful sunrise view.

The Maryland World War 2 Memorial is a great place to walk to remember those that sacrificed fortune, future, and family to stop oppression in the Atlantic and Pacific theater. It helps me remember some of the great industry and medical juggernauts found in this state. Would like more places for quiet refection.

This is one of those little road side stops that is worth your time. Is youre not in a hurry take a walk down the road to the naval academy bridge for some great views.

Beautiful and serene. Wonderful honor to those in Maryland who served their country, civilian and military. Thank you.

A nice-looking Memorial overlooking the water that recognizes a lot of the contributions that Maryland made to World War II - Including the names of the residents that died in the prosecution of this war. It also gives very interesting background information on the other tangible contributions made by the state and its residents.

A must see memorial with a magnificent view of the Severen river and Naval academy

Amazing memorial. Such a humbling experience to visit. My husband took me here as a date. I learned so much and gain a new level of respect for my country. When my children get older I plan on taking them. The views are breathtaking as you can see the United States Naval Academy Dome from the memorial.

A beautiful tribute to their states WWII sacrifices.

Beautiful outdoor memorial next to scenic overlook, overlooking the naval academy. Great blue Angels viewing spot and enjoying family time as well as a place to pay respects. Many benches around area. Great picnic area ahead of memorial.

A beautiful, educational memorial that houses an amphitheater within the center, surrounded by the names of all those lost in WWII both in combat and in ancillary service to include men and women. It carries the same atmosphere as the Vietnam Wall and other War Memorials. It overlooks the Severn River at the bridge leading into USNA and Downtown Annapolis. Flags are flown overhead surrounded by trees and sidewalks that circle to an upper designated parking area. Definitely worth your respect and visit.

Nice place to look out over landscape.

Not the biggest memorial but it was beautiful. It has a lot of stories on what transpired during WW2

Favorite hidden gem, drive across the Navy Memorial bridge to and from the monumwnt is an added bonus. Gold star monument on the other side of the parking lot is worth a look too.

A quiet place to visit, learn some history about the war and enjoy the view of the Severn River and the Naval Acedemy

Always a good visit. They gotta trim the trees that now block the overlooks view, but still beautiful.

The memorial is located at an excellent location , its not more than an hour detour if youre to or from the bay bridge . For one its wonderfully designed , the names on the walls, national and state flag over a tribute to all the pillars of US security and the wonderful Annapolis overlook makes it even more sweet. Its open always and very close to US50 .

This place has a wonderful short summary of WWII from an American (Maryland specifically) perspective. It is a small amphitheatre surrounded by educational monuments. It looks like it might light up at night, too.

Very nice memorial. Overlooks the Severn River, over to the Naval Academy. You will need a few minutes to enjoy it all.

This is a very nice memorial. The wall of names makes you stop and reflect. There are several interesting things to see here and the grounds are beautiful. Definitely a good place to stop and take in some history.

A beautifully kept property with a great view of the Naval Academy

Interesting history in a peaceful place.

Nice lil tour you can do in your car

Beautiful view and clean park.

Beautiful , interesting, .walk across the to to where the families are honored amazing

Gorgeous spot and setup, wish it had more attention than it gets, I would love to see it one more time before I leave. Just beautiful

Pretty and great social distancing

Came across this while visiting. Our family looked around and took some photos.

Nice small memorial, but well done and a nice tribute to the men and women lost.

For the amount of traffic, it is peaceful. The organization and flow design is beautiful! Overall great memorial

A nice place to seat, reflex and honor Maryland hero’s who served our country and the world during the World War II

It is such beautiful spot to stop and reflected, what has been gained and what was has been given. We love it so much. I got engaged here! 10.30.19

A very beautiful view and nice memorial. Nice place to just sit and relax.

Was really surprised that the landscape was not done for memorial weekend. the memorial it self was very nice. Was difficult to walk the path bushes werent trimmed back.

Moving tribute to those who sacrificed for our freedom during WWII. I was teary after reading the first sign, and took pics of the rest to read at home. Beautiful scenic views, as well.

I visited the memorial early in the morning. A circular memorial honoring Maryland Veterans. A great surprise for me to see such a great place. Im an amateur artist and was able to have the morning sketching the memorial. I will visit another time. A morning just isnt enough to set and visit. Everyone, at least every Maryland native should visit here. Im a Virginian.

Very interesting and a well hidden secret.

Beautiful memorial with views of the Severn River, Naval Academy. Naval Academy Briddge , Jonas Green Park and The Capitol in Downtown Annapolis

I drove past this place and had to turnaround and return. Very nicely done as an honor to our brave men and women who served in WWII.

If youre a history buff or you just appreciate good scenery this is an awesome place to stop. Its free to check it out and Ive never seen it busy. Nice quiet spot to look around and read the plaques. If youre a history buff you can definitely waste the better part of an hour or more here.

Beautiful location, view, and dedication to honor our soldiers.

Great stopping point and beautiful view

Very nice memorial to our WW II Veterans.The grounds surrounding the memorial are in a neglected state, weeds over growing the walk ways, dead bushes and plants throughout. Vandalism to the memorials light fixtures that are enclosed in the steps. All of this takes away from the memorial.

Love love loved this place it was so nice and informative. Very well maintained and clean. Beautiful views. Love all the informative plaques

Wow. A little off-the-road stop definitely worth your time. You will have the privilege of honoring Marylands servicemen.

Beautiful!

It is not as impressive as the memorials that you see when you are actually in Washington DC. But if you are going to be in the area you really will enjoy the view. Please be respectful . It was well kept. We visited when we were on our way to see the horses.

Beautiful view!!

Beautiful place to remember those who fought for our freedom

Wonderful history. Grounds kept clean.

Its a beautiful place to stop and have a little alone time. Great view of the city and the severn.

Really cool place to check out!

Bucket list stuff, I used to li e in the area, but my kids enjoyed it. Prepare to walk. Bring your pedometer.

Stopped briefly in rain. Memorial could use some maintenance. The view is good.

History and beauty

Very well done historical monument... great view of the Severn River

Beautiful views of the Severn River and USNA add to this impressive memorial

Free parking. No bathrooms. No water. Pretty scenery, you can see the naval academy from this Hill.

My son loved it he said it was very cool its very informative Place easy to get to at no cost in Annapolis

Awesome place!

The memorial is nice, with spectacular view of the Naval academy

Very nice place very organised and clean.its a great place to sit and meditate.

This is an AMAZING place to stop. So much history and you really feel it here. Just to read the names on the plaques and understand the devastation that this war caused is so intense. I reccomend stopping here if you are in the are and take in a very important piece of history.

It was nice and looked over part of the Naval Academy

Fantastic experience. Great view.

Thank you for your Service

Beautiful location on the north-eastern bank of the Severn River across from Annapolis. Spectacular view of the Naval Academy, Annapolis and beyond. Well designed and crafted memorial to those who served in World War II. Definitely stop when you have a few minutes driving down MD Route 2 across US 50 onto Route 450 into Annapolis, or when leaving Annapolis on MD Route 450 across the Severn River up towards US 50.

A very somber memorial of those who gave their lives for our freedom and the Gold Star families of those left behind. I spent many years of my life taking pictures of the exceptional views from the Outlook and certainly can appreciate it even more with age.

Nice memorial nice view of Academy

Found this place by mistake. Great memorial and awesome views.

Great place to learn about history with a nice view.

Didnt even know this was here. Was an unexpected stop but what a wonderful memorial. All the names of Marylanders who died in WWII were engraved on the monument. Beautifully done.

A beautiful spot! The memorial itself is very well done and kept. The entrance and parking lot are a bit rough around the edges though. Also, this is a great place to watch the sun set.

Needs work. Shame on whoever takes care of maintenance

Very moving. Should be made more known on the Naval Base for its location.

One of my favorite little places to take a quick stop and pay my respects.

I enjoyed visiting the meremoral

Can spend hours here looking up names on the wall.

Respect

Currently (7/18) undergoing needed repairs and upgrading. A nice memorial to those that gave their all.

Sober and picturesque. The Annapolis WWII Memorial overlooks the Severn River with the Naval Academy (Hospital Point) on the far shore and the City in the background.

A very calm ambiance.

I cannot believe this monument is not wheelchair accessible.

Very nice monument.

Anne Arundel County Veterans Commission did an outstanding program here on Memorial Day. Wonderful location!

Great view and nice memorial

Great views!

Trees blocked excellent view.

A hidden gem in Annapolis. Very informative and tasteful memorial. Worth the stop

Its a beautiful place, and across from it you can see the navy academy from across the water. The area is so peaceful.

A quiet but meaningful site with a great view down on Annapolis waterfrontespecially spectacular at night

Easy to get to, free, great place to see a bit of history. Very close to Annapolis which has plenty more tours to take by bus and boat.

It is a great place to take my grandchildren to show them n talk with them about the history that it has to offer. Its just a beautiful place to sit n take it all in.

I had a childhood friend, John Reister Lane, who was killed in The Battle of the Bulge. In 1945. His name appears on the Maryland WW 2 memorial.He will always be remembered by me.Asa

Very humbling to see each of the fallens names...this is a very well done memorial. Opposite to the World War IIs memorials entrance is a special memorial to the Gold Star families - not easy to notice.

Such a beautiful park overlooking the severn river, navel academy, and 450 bridge. Parking available. Free.

This is a simple and lovely memorial overlooking the United States Naval Academy.

Trees obstruct the view a bit but unique location

I found family members names on the stones, and it is the best views of Annapolis.

Beautiful and peaceful place. Theres positive energy all around the memorial and the views are equally exeptional.

Nice
