Pittsburgh’s WWII Photo Album

The History Center’s Detre Library & Archives contains many more great WWII photos and stories than we could squeeze into a 10,000 square foot exhibition. Dozens more have been offered during the course of our research, some of which are featured below.

Pittsburgh’s WWII Photo Album allows local residents to share their family stories and show how the region banded together to help win WWII.

Learn more about the History Center’s recent We Can Do It! WWII exhibition and see if the WWII traveling exhibition is coming near you.

If you’re interested in submitting your own photo to Pittsburgh’s WWII photo album, please use this form. Once we receive your photo, it may take up to a week before it appears in the photo album.
