Hank Williams Museum turns 26 years old!

WELCOME TO THE HANK WILLIAMS MUSEUM AS WE CELEBRATE 26 YEARS!

Twenty-six years ago (Feb 8, 1999) the Hank Williams Museum in Montgomery, AL opened its doors to the world. Cecil Jackson, the Museum's Founder, proudly featured Hank's 1952 Cadillac convertible as the centerpiece of the exhibits. The crown jewel of all Cadillacs arrived in Montgomery on January 29, 1999, marking a significant moment as Daddy's dream began to materialize.  The Museum was housed in the historic Union Station at 300 Water Street from January 1, 1998, to May 2000. It relocated to its current address to 118 Commerce Street in May 2000.

Can you find Hank in the Cadillac?
