In July 1993 the National Cryptologic Museum was first opened to NSA employees and their families, and to other members of the intelligence community. Although this opening was a bit quiet, the initial months were used to fine-tune exhibits and to get used to giving tours and answering questions. The public opening in December 1993 received great media interest and attendance boomed!
