Description

A Callery pear tree was discovered in the rubble of Ground Zero during the recovery operation after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The severely damaged tree was nursed back to health and became known as the Survivor tree. It now stands at the 9 11 Memorial as a living reminder of our shared strength and resilience in the face of tragedy.

The 9 11 Memorial and Museum are possible only through you support.
