 What is the best museum in Alabama?
 

The Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts would certainly be in the top two or three. And it isn't just the larger Alabama cities that have museums. Auburn has a great art museum. And let's not forget other museums, like "The Museum of Alabama" inside the Archives building in Montgomery, or the Reed Books in Birmingham---much more a museum than a book store.

Construction of a MMFA Sculpture garden continues.

  1. And, of course, there's the Bear Bryant museum in Tuscaloosa. Can't miss that one.
