George Washington Carver Interpretive Museum

Located in the original Greyhound bus station in downtown Dothan, the George Washington Carver Interpretive Museum is a tribute to Dr. Carver, who served as a catalyst for southern agronomic prosperity, and as a symbol of the creative link between science and art. Exhibits reflect the historical scope of contributions and achievements of African-Americans and African descended cultures as demonstrated by Dr. Carver. Developing over 300 uses for peanuts in food, industrial and commercial products, as well as promoting soil rotation, Dr. Carver helped save the Wiregrass from economic ruin in the age of the boll weevil. Open Tuesday through Saturday, and closed holidays. Admission is free, but donations are kindly accepted. Guided tours and large groups are available by reservation.
