Info: Old Cahawba’s three cemeteries tell many stories. Imposing monuments of antebellum social and economic elite, plain memorial stones of Union army prisoners of war and unmarked resting places of African-Americans all speak to the rich diversity of a town that was once Alabama’s state capitol.

This tour will visit cemeteries and explore the personal sagas of many of those who lived here before joining its community of perpetual residents.
