Hank Williams was an unmistakeable forefather of country music, and his creations and legacy are celebrated to great effect in the Hank Williams Museum. Williams is linked to Montgomery as he won his first talent show here at the Empire Theatre and also gave his last performance here just three days before his death. The museum attraction features an amazing collection of memorabilia and mementos that tell the story of the life and work of this true musical legend.

It doesn't matter if it's a Broadway-style production, a dramatic play or a contemporary concert - if it's must-see entertainment, there's a good chance it is happening on the stage of the Montgomery Performing Arts Centre. This state-of-the-art facility features dazzling lighting, amazing acoustics and comfortably seats an audience of 1,800. Make sure to check the website regularly for an updated schedule of all of the upcoming performances and ticket information. You definitely don't want to miss the next big show at this highly-regarded venue.

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.
