The EarlyWorks Family of Museums
A hands-on history complex of three properties traces Alabama’s history from statehood to the Civil War and railroad eras. Craftspeople in period dress demonstrate skills such as woodworking, printing, and weaving at Alabama Constitution Village, the site of Alabama's 1819 constitutional convention. At EarlyWorks Children's Museum, hear stories from a talking tree, wear 1800s-style clothing, and examine a 46-foot keelboat. A few blocks from the village, the Huntsville Depot and Museum gives a glimpse of railroad life in the early 1800s.
