Really excellent opp to learn about the Confederacy as well meet wonderful engaging staff
I thoroughly enjoyed taking to the staff especially Robert W (sorry, my memory is bad and don't want to misspell his last name). He was extremely friendly, extremely engaging and willing to share stories which made the history fun to consume. I would truly recommend it as Pres J Davies of the Confederates is at times a misunderstood character in history and by visiting this home, perception can be better addressed

important piece of Alabama history
Free! The most difficult thing about this experience was finding a parking spot. If you can find a metered spot, just take it and pay on the app. If you go next door behind the Archives, there is a small free parking lot marked with a brown sign for parking, and you can just walk over. We were met at the door by Bob, a very passionate Civil War historical who will answer all your questions and then some. The museum itself is small - maybe 30 minutes- but sit and hear al the stories if you have time. Then go across the street to the Capitol for more Civil War history.
