The minute you set foot inside the Martin Luther King home, you can feel the sense of historical significance. This unassuming house was home to Dr. King and his family and most assuredly the site of many highly dramatic and tension-filled moments. When you walk in, you enter the gift shop and then begin by seeing a video of King and other significant figures of the Civil Rights Movement. Your tour guide will be happy to answer any questions you may have along the way.
A visit to Montgomery's Oakwood Cemetery Annex is as historically interesting as it is somewhat eerie. This cemetery dates back to the 1800s and is the burial site for many of Alabama's forefathers. Hank Williams is buried here, as memorialized by a stone-carved cowboy hat that marks his gravesite. This is a great stop to learn about Montgomery's history from a totally unique perspective.
