Alabama Constitution Village in Huntsville recreates everyday life in 1819 at the site where Alabama’s constitutional convention met. Identified through archaeological work in the 1970s, the reconstructed setting includes four restored buildings on their original foundations and represents a small early nineteenth-century streetscape with shops, offices, and a residence. Its greatest significance lies in July 5, 1819, when forty-four delegates gathered in a vacant cabinet shop here for the convention that helped bring Alabama into the Union as the twenty-second state. The site preserves both a foundational political setting and the working character of a frontier town.
