"The 9/11 Memorial and Museum, built on the footprint of the fallen Twin Towers, in Lower Manhattan will once again play host to the annual memorial service that brings together loved ones to remember the nearly 3,000 people murdered on Sept. 11, 2001 in the coordinated attacks on America, including hundreds of first responders who died in their heroic efforts to save people at the doomed Twin Towers."
"The ceremony will start at 8:30 a.m. on Sept. 11, 2025, followed 16 minutes later by a citywide moment of silence at 8:46 a.m., the time when hijacked American Airlines Flight 11 struck the north tower of the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001. Houses of worship across the city are expected to toll their bells at that time."
Mourning families lifted photographs of their loved ones as a bell tolled at the 9/11 Memorial and Museum on Sept. 11, 2024. The memorial sits on the footprint of the fallen Twin Towers in Lower Manhattan and serves as the site for the annual ceremony honoring nearly 3,000 people killed on Sept. 11, 2001, plus six victims of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. The names of all 2,983 victims will be read aloud by family members. The ceremony will begin at 8:30 a.m., include a citywide moment of silence at 8:46 a.m., tolling of bells, and pauses at five moments marking the attack sequence; the reading is expected to continue until about 1 p.m.
