  • One of the two rooms at Hoa Lo Prison dedicated to the American pilots held there during the Vietnam War. The exhibits focus on making the case that the pilots were well treated, despite many reports of mistreatment and tortue at the prison at the hands of the North Vietnamese. At right are some clothing and personal effects used by the American prisoners, which are presented as stark contrasts to what was offered to Vietnamese political prisoners under French colonial rule. Hoa Lo Prison, also known sarcastically as the Hanoi Hilton during the Vietnam War, was originally a French colonial prison for political prisoners and then a North Vietnamese prison for prisoners of war. It is especially famous for being the jail used for American pilots shot down during the Vietnam War.
