## Visit Hurricane Katrina Memorial

Activities

#### Pay your respects at this symbolic monument to the residents of Mississippi coastal towns who lost their lives during a fateful hurricane.

Visit the Hurricane Katrina Memorial to reflect on a natural disaster that caused destruction along the Gulf Coast of the U.S. The memorial was erected about six months after the 2005 Hurricane Katrina, which was among the most catastrophic events ever to hit the nation. It was built by the crew members of the television series *Extreme Makeover: Home Edition*.

The somber black granite monument stands 12 feet (3.6 meters) tall, which matches the height of water surge during the hurricane. Etched into the stone are the names of the people who died or were registered as missing on the fateful day. Note the glass box set in front of the granite. It features an abstract sculpture created from personal items donated by South Mississippians.

Contrasting with the memorial wall is a colorful and curving mosaic wave. This is a representation of the hurricane’s surge wave. Pause for thought and appreciate how the monument celebrates the memory of the storm, symbolizes hope and inspires community spirit.

Look also for a commemorative plaque that provides a comparison between the destruction caused by Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Camille in 1969.

After seeing the memorial, enjoy the pretty surroundings of its location in the Town Green public park. Admire a tree sculpture that showcases Biloxi’s seafood trade and maritime history. Ask at the Biloxi Visitors Center about celebrations, concerts and festivals that take place at the green. These range from community grilling during the St. Patrick’s Day Parade to outdoor film screenings and the annual Biloxi Seafood Festival.

Located in Town Green, the Hurricane Katrina Memorial is one of several attractions and landmarks of downtown Biloxi near the Gulf Coast. It’s close to casinos, pubs, restaurants, the Coastal Mardi Gras Museum and the USS Biloxi Memorial. If you drive, use the metered parking lot opposite the green. The city’s bus station is a 10-minute walk away.

7.6/10 Good! (1,024 reviews)

It was a 5 minute walk to Jackson Square and Bourbon Street. Excellent location. Parking at the hotel was chaotic, the spaces were so close you could barely get out of your car door. Our car got scratched several times and a couple dents in the doors
