Freedom Park is an outdoor park and museum on the bank of the Missouri River in East Omaha, Nebraska at the Greater Omaha Marina at 2000 North 25th Street. It displays numerous military aircraft and artillery pieces along with its two major exhibits, the World War II minesweeper USS Hazard and World War II submarine USS Marlin.[1]

The park is currently closed for renovations.[1]

Previously the amphibious landing ship USS LSM-45 was anchored at the park, but was moved to North Carolina in the spring of 2004.[2]
