LAKEHURST –Would you like to see with your own eyes where the Hindenburg burned and then crashed? Would you like to see “Hangar One” where the Hindenburg was kept when waiting for return trips to Germany?
Would you like to see the beauty of the “Cathedral Chapel of the Air” with wonderful stained glass windows, beautiful altar and an inspiring shrine to New Jersey airship veterans and the four chaplins?
Would you like to see the Ready Room with all five Branches of the Military, POW/MIA Room?
If you do, then the Navy Lakehurst Historical Society can make that happen for you.
Tours are free though donations are gratefully accepted! The tours are every Wednesday and second Saturday of the month and in April to October every second and fourth Saturday of each month at 9 a.m. The tours are about three hours long.
Call N.L.H.S at 732-575-6904 or e-mail BillSchmidt1000@aol.com about the Lakehurst Hindenburg Tour! A four-week prior notice is required from the time you wish to go on the tour as you are entering the Navy Lakehurst Air Base.
There is a Gift Shop for Hindenburg and military items for sale in the Hindenburg Room. Hats, shirts, coffee mugs and patches are available through cash only sales.
The Navy Lakehurst Historical Society is looking for a few volunteers to aid in the operation of the Hindenburg Tour.
