Welcome to the MCRD Command Museum. Our mission is to provide an educational setting that portrays the legacy of the Marine Corps. We accomplish this by:

Creating exhibits about the history of the Marine Corps from the late 19th century to the present day

Maintaining a reference center which contains an archives and a research library

Training recruits in Marine Corps history

Developing curricula of Marine Corps history, tradition, and values

Providing classes and tours for Marines, students, and groups within the civilian community

Preserving artifacts of enduring value in accordance with the museum's mission and collection development statement

Admission to the museum; classes and tours; and information and services from the reference center are free and open to the public.
