Old Courthouse Museum

Restored to its 1930s appearance, the Old Courthouse Museum draws readers from around the world eager to step inside the inspiration for the setting of one of the most influential books in American literature, Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird. The courtroom, located in the author’s hometown, has become one of the most recognized courtrooms in the nation as it provides a realistic, physical representation of the fictitious Maycomb Courthouse.
