Constitution Village
The Village rests on the actual site where the Alabama Constitutional Convention was held in 1819.
Alabama became the 22nd state admitted to the Union on December 14, 1819. This living history museum features costumed guides who lead visitors on a tour of a working village. A cabinetmaker's shop, a print shop, a confectionery shop, a library, and a post office are all featured. More than eight carefully reconstructed buildings of the 1800s depict early lifestyles in Alabama, including that of African-American settlers. It also commemorates the site of the 1819 Constitutional Convention.

Built in 1819, the house at 300 Gates Avenue is now open to the public as the Weeden House Museum and Garden. Dr. William Weeden bought the house in 1845, and his descendants owned it until 1956. Now owned by the City of Huntsville, it is leased by the Twickenham Historic Preservation District Association and maintained as a 19th-century house museum.
Earlier residents included John McKinley, who lived in the house. |

Huntsville Botanical Gardens Rose Garden
Huntsville Botanical is more than a garden. From May through September, the Garden comes alive with butterflies. In the butterflies' house, the Scarecrow Trail is filled with goblins from Sept through October, and the Garden is bubbling over with Christmas lights during their Galaxy of Light. There is always something to do in the Garden. |
