Plan Your Visit

Make the most of your visit to the Tuskegee History Center by planning ahead.

“Serving as both a museum and an official visitor center for Tuskegee and Macon County, this tax-exempt, nonprofit facility, one of the best of its kind, offers a more complete account of Tuskegee’s history than either the Tuskegee Institute or Tuskegee Airmen National Park Services sites”

“I specifically love how this museum was built, the interior, and the way art and images were used to tell and interpret history.”

“Add this to your list of must-see spots in Tuskegee.”

“I was met at the door by two outstanding employees who guided me through the exhibits. I was most interested in the Tuskegee Syphilis exhibit; it was more than I expected. The entire museum held my attention for over an hour with the history of Tuskegee and its plight through integration and voting rights. Highly recommend this museum.”
