Birmingham Audio Tour: Echoes of Heritage and Civil Rights

Audio guide13 stops

Red bricks still bear the scars of bomb blasts along Birmingham’s 16th Street, a city block that once shook the world awake. Beneath these surface wounds and beneath grand library halls, secrets wait to be uncovered by those daring enough to look closer. Move at your own pace on this self-guided audio tour, discovering places where protests erupted, art defied boundaries, and untold stories linger just beyond familiar facades. Each stop invites you to see past the ordinary and deeper into Birmingham’s soul. Was a single whispered word inside the 16th Street Baptist Church enough to ignite a national movement? Who guarded forbidden books deep within the library’s vaults when censors came knocking? Which painting in the Birmingham Museum of Art holds the clues to an unsolved disappearance? Follow the winding path through resistance, revelation, and quiet rebellion. Every block holds another revelation as you experience Birmingham in bold new colors. Begin your journey here and see the real city etched into every stone.
