The Monroe County Heritage Museum, located in Monroeville, Alabama, operates the historic Old Monroe County Courthouse, which was designated a National Historic Landmark in January 2021. This museum immerses visitors in the literary legacies of Harper Lee and Truman Capote while showcasing the region's rich history ranging from Native American culture to pioneer life.

Each year, thousands of fans of "To Kill a Mockingbird" visit to experience the connection to its fictional setting of Maycomb, guided by informative exhibits about Lee and Capote. In addition to the courthouse, the museum also manages three other historic sites that collectively reveal the area's diverse historical narratives, including prehistoric fossil deposits and local politics.
