Aldrich Coal Mine Museum
The Aldrich Coal Mine Museum, located in Montevallo, Alabama, is a historical complex dedicated to preserving the heritage of coal mining in the region. It features two historic structures associated with the Montevallo Coal Mining Company and highlights the contributions of coal mining to local history, including the only monument to coal miners in Alabama.
Founded in a town originally known for its coal mining since 1839, the museum showcases artifacts, historical photographs, and displays that reflect daily life in a mining community, including the experiences of African American families. The complex is home to the former company store and Farrington Hall, both of which provide insight into the social and economic fabric of the mining town.
