(Royal Palm) - Nike Missile Site Open House

About this event

Everglades National Park houses one of the best preserved relics of the Cold War in Florida, a historic Nike Hercules missile site called "Alpha Battery" or "HM69". Step into the Cold War for a volunteer-run open house of the historic Nike Missile Site, HM69. See an actual missile and many of the original support buildings. Open House is 4 hours, where the site is available for you to explore. Accessible. Guided tours begin at the Daniel Beard Center and are conducted most afternoons (see park program calendar) between December and April. Contact the front desk staff at the Ernest Coe Visitor Center to confirm the Open House is happening.
