Pacific Battleship Center – Battleship IOWA Museum

Once a formidable presence in the U.S. Navy, the USS Iowa served with distinction during World War II, the Korean War, and the Cold War, earning its reputation as one of the world’s greatest naval ships due to its powerful weaponry, heavy armor, and advanced fire control systems. Now docked in Los Angeles Harbor in San Pedro, California, the battleship has been transformed into the Pacific Battleship Center – Battleship IOWA Museum. Visitors can explore the ship’s expansive decks, delve into its rich history, and gain insight into the daily lives of the sailors who once called it home.
