Honoring Korean War Soldiers

This Memorial honors the 191 young soldiers from Worcester County who lost their lives in the Korean War. The small plaza contains a life size bronze statue of a U.S. soldier with a Korean child, many flagpoles, educational signs, and a "Walkway of Honor", which includes memorial bricks, inscribed with the names of Massachusetts soldiers who lost their lives in more recent conflicts. A black granite wall contains the names of those who died as a result of the Korean War. Granite benches encircle the flags. Monuments, Memorials and Landmarks are high on our list of places to visit. This Memorial is modest compared to many others, yet it is just as meaningful. The Memorial is just behind Union Station, and across a busy street. The flags can be seen from further away.

    Worcester korean war memorial
    Great memorial to a forgotten war. You can buy a brick with your veterans name on it. Parking directly in front of it.

    What an absolutely awesome tribute to the Korean War Soldiers
    I have passed this area throughout the past several years on my way to work and watched as it came to be. Every time I go by, I see yet more of it. Today, I parked the car and visited. So well done, tastefully sentimental and appropriately displayed. The monuments, plaques and landscaping are awesome. Take the time to see this!
