Montevallo

Montevallo, AL stands as a testament to history, nature, and warm hospitality. At the Aldrich Coal Mine Museum, visitors can journey through the region's coal mining legacy, something which contributed to the growth of the area through the 20th century. The Alabama National Cemetery serves as a poignant reminder of the nation's heroes, while the American Village museum of ideas brings American history to life with its educational programs and striking recreations. Don’t forget the historic University of Montevallo, a sprawling campus founded in 1896 and voted among the top four best value colleges in the Regional South.

For those seeking tranquility, Orr Park offers a green sanctuary with its distinctive tree carvings, and the Alabama Scenic River Trail presents opportunities for sight-seeing and hiking. Accommodations like the Fox and Pheasant Bed & Breakfast Inn and the Windmill Drive Guest House ensure a comfortable and memorable stay in one of Alabama’s most charming small towns.
