9/11 Photography Installation

Photographs taken as the towers fell, around a piece of the World Trade Center.

HistoryPhotographyPermanentFree

In Imperial War Museum London.

A permanent room that opened on 4 September 2026, twenty-five years on, built around a large section of steel recovered from the World Trade Center. On the walls are photographs taken that morning by two people who ran towards it. Bill Biggart, a freelance, kept photographing as he moved down towards the site and was beside the emergency services when the North Tower came down; he was killed, his cameras were dug out of the wreckage afterwards, and this is the first time the pictures on them have been shown outside the United States. Suzanne Plunkett, working for the Associated Press, made some of the images the day is now remembered by. Alongside them the museum shows what followed: a laptop, a GPS unit and annotated maps carried by Bjorn Rose, a platoon commander with the Royal Anglians in Helmand in 2007, newly acquired and on display for the first time. Free, like the rest of the museum.
