Old Alabama Town, the South’s premier history village, welcomes you to 2004.

The South’s premier history village.
Old Alabama Town is a collection of authentically restored 19th and 20th century structures. A magnificent setting, it stretches along six blocks in the heart of historic downtown Montgomery, Alabama.

Step back in time and experience over 100 years of history as you embark on a journey where you will see meticulously restored and furnished buildings reflecting the lives of the people who settled and developed Central Alabama. Each building creates its own distinctive image of living and working in Alabama’s past. You will see a cross-section of the way life was from the elegant townhouse lifestyle to rural pioneer living.

Landmarks Foundation of Montgomery, a non-profit corporation develops and administers Old Alabama Town. Landmarks came into being in 1967 for the purpose of fostering, encouraging and leading the preservation movement in the area. With the purchase of the 1850s Ordeman Townhouse and its dependencies in 1968, Landmarks has acquired and restored over forty buildings and is committed to preserving the past for the good of the future. Today Old Alabama Town continues to grow and is a place where people of all ages have fun learning about history, architecture and lifestyles.

Old Alabama Town is more than just a tour… it is an experience in history.
