Old pioneer village
This is about an hour of two of interesting information based on the old south. Includes a loom with an exhibition of making cloth from the cotton thread.

Lovely unique museum
We decided to make this a stop while travelling from Birmingham to Dothan. We did not have children with us, but my husband and I found the property and museum contents to be delightful and serve an important role in education. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and the resident cat "Smokey" was beautiful. The admission fee is very reasonable ($6) and the gift shop has some nice items. We read the earlier reviews- we are happy to report that the lawn mower apparently is repaired, the grass was an appropriate height and all debris from the unfortunate barn fire has been removed. I applaud museums such as this one, much more than a building filled with artifacts, but also a means to "live" in the past, even if it's just for a few hours.
