Selma Interpretive Center of the Selma to Montgomery National Historic Trail

Free interpretive center for the Selma Civil rights movement. Pretty small, but informative and a good place to start. The Edmund Pettus bridge is a short walk away. The ranger was very informative and willing to help and answer all questions. The city of Selma is a run down dump of a town though. The entire town looks like it hasn't been painted in a hundred years.

A pleasant surprise. Entry was free and the museum was small but comprehensive. It was a good summary of the 1965 March to Montgomery and it was supported by videos shown in the museum. This was a truly eye opening experience. This is a must when in Selma

Small but great interpretive center just across the bridge in Selma. Parking out front is free. Potent display capturing the pain and injustice of the white leadership of Selma and beyond. Beautiful quote from president Obama’s visit to Selma for the 50th anniversary. Small park store offering a lot of the same products as the Lowndes store. A don’t miss when in Selma.

It is closed. Supposed to be under renovation but everything looks abandoned. Sadly, it looks like a ghost town

Visiting this museum was such a wonderful, profound experience. It is also surrounded with other historical landmarks and places. Can't wait to come back to Selma!

Full of history, was able to meet people who played a part in the Selma to Montgomery March. Make sure to check out the movie they have playing on the top floor. It’s literally right across the Edmund pettus bridge

I had the honour and privelage to visit this facility today. Although the main floor was the only floor accessible, it’s still powerful to see Dr. King’s words along with a few exhibits. I also had the joy of speaking with Ken the staff member who was there today. He was very informative and an absolute joy to talk with. I have wanted to come to Selma for a number of years and I am very glad I did.

Small but well done exhibit. It is at the end of the Edmund Pettus Bridge.
