About Us

History lives at Old Alabama Town, where six blocks of authentically restored 19th and early 20th century structures beckon you to step back in time to the days of one-room schoolhouses, grist mills and cotton gins—all without leaving the heart of downtown Montgomery, Alabama. From lavish antebellum mansions to humble log cabins and slave quarters, at Old Alabama Town you will learn how early Americans of all backgrounds lived and worked in Central Alabama.

Old Alabama Town is a outdoor history museum managed by the non-profit Landmarks Foundation for the City of Montgomery. The 19th century village is open year-round and its mission is to preserve, interpret and present Central Alabama's architecture, history and culture.
