5 months agoThis was a neat little spot to visit for a brief history lesson. Unfortunately, the museum was closed & we couldn't find any information about their hours during our visit. Capitol Park is a part of the Tuscaloosa civil rights history trail. There is a map located at the front side parking access to the left of the museum showing other locations that are also a part of the trail as well.
