The American Immigrant

Wall of Honor

The Wall of Honor on Ellis Island commemorates the immigrant experience and is one of the only places in the United States where individuals can honor their family heritage at a National Monument. Unveiled in 1990 with the opening of the Ellis Island Immigration Museum, over the years the inscriptions have expanded beyond Ellis Island passengers. Today, this permanent tribute to our nation’s immigration story features nearly one million names – representing the journey of all of those who have left home to pursue the promise of a better life.
