    Not to be missed when visiting Memphis. Prepare to spend a few hours in the museum and the former boarding house across the street. A fascinating, and somber, tour through African American history.

    A must see in Memphis! Make sure to do the audio tour. There is so much to read and the subject matter is intense so the audio tour helps balance things out so that you don't miss anything.

    After the multi-million dollar renovation, this museum looks AMAZING! The museum takes you on a time line from the shipping of slaves to the U.S., up to and continuing past the civil rights movement.

    Really well done. Highly recommend a visit to this museum. Take your time. Maybe takes 3 hours to totally see it all. But it's worth it.

    I like what they've done with the place. The museum is open every day except Tuesday, but they have nice interactive videos on the plaza outside that can be seen night or day.

    The exhibits include a great amount of information and history on Civil Rights, but the moving documentary on MLK Jr. you cannot miss! There will be an announcement when the film is about to start!

    Learn amazing facts about civil rights history in America. Interestingly enough, the last resident of the Lorraine Motel is there daily. Take a tissue, though, it's an emotional rollercoaster.

    Of hopes and dreams, of challenge and change. It is an American story. The museum is built around the former Lorraine Motel, where Martin Luther King was assassinated on April 4, 1968.
