Spomen dom hrvatskih branitelja Vukovar na Trpinjskoj cesti svečano je otvoren 24. rujna 2011. godine. Zgrada je napravljena u obliku čvrsto stisnute šake, koja simbolizira snagu kojom se branio Vukovar od agresije. Unutra, u ostakljenom ponoru, na dubini od 2,5 metara još jedna simbolika u obliku “pokopane” kupole uništenog tenka bivše JNA. Spomen dom je izgrađen po idejnom rješenju Miljenka Romića, likovnog umjetnika iz Zagreba, koji je i autor koncepta Spomen-doma Ovčara. Za objekt na Trpinjskoj možemo reći da su “vrata svih arhiva” jer postav podržava neprekidno dopunjavanje arhivskom građom - vizualnom i audiograđom - o danima obrane Vukovara. Okosnica unutar prostora je spiralni zid, čime autor prenosi “simboliku zračnog vrtloga koji je začetak kasnije vojno-redarstvene akcije Oluja”, dok već sam ulazak u Spomen-dom daje dojam labirinta onako kako su i vukovarski branitelji '91. bili u labirintima nepredvidivih izlaza.
Ispred spomen doma je tenk kao znak sile koju su slomili hrabri branitelji, te bista Blage Zadre koji je neupitni junak Domovinskoga rata, a borio se i vodio branitelje upravo na ovom području Vukovara.
Spomen dom je otvoren svaki dan (osim ponedjeljkom) od 10 do 17 sati, ulaz se ne naplaćuje, a kroz spomen dom posjetitelje vodi stručni vodić.
