The Wright Brothers Memorial is located at the top of Wright Brothers Hill, overlooking the Huffman Prairie Flying Field where Wilbur and Orville conducted tests of their early flying machines in 1904 and 1905.

The Aviation Trail Museum is located across the street from the Wright Brothers' original cycle shop.  This Museum displays the Wright Brothers original printing equipment, family pictures, historical memorablia, and flying artifacts.

The cycle shop is one of the only two original Wright brothers building still standing at their original locations in the West Side neighborhood where Wilbur and Orville lived, worked and invented the airplane. The Wright brothers occupied this building from 1895 to 1897, manufacturing bicycles on the first floor and operating a job printing business on the second floor.
