The National Memorial for Peace and Justice
Opened in April 2018 by the Equal Justice Initiative, the National Memorial for Peace and Justice (417 Caroline St, Montgomery, AL 36104) is the nation's first memorial dedicated to the victims of racial terror lynching in America. The six-acre site includes more than 800 hanging steel monuments — one for each county in the United States where a racial terror lynching occurred — and draws visitors and student groups from across the country. An adjacent museum, the Legacy Museum, is located about a mile away at 400 N Court St. Charter buses drop at the memorial's designated vehicle entrance off Caroline Street, and groups visiting both sites in a single day benefit enormously from having one bus to coordinate the transfer.
