Confederate Memorial Park

"Very humbling. Just realizing the sacrifice these brave men gave can not be put in to words. These were real mean who believed in freedom and country first. Thank you for a gift that can never be repaid"

"This is part of the US history. We have good, bad and everything in between to remember from our country's past. We can't pretend it doesn't exist and we can't view everything through today's moral lens. This is a nice park and within its boundaries lay the loved ones of many good families. The restrooms are clean and there are many BBQ grills and picnic tables available. Walking around the grounds should cause some reflection about the history of our amazing country."

"We were up in Birmingham for an annual checkup. After that we had nothing on schedule so we looked up some state parks on our route back and came up on the Confederate Memorial Park: 437Road 63, Maubury, Alabama 36051. This is a large, well-maintained park supported by the Alabama Historical Commission. The park is beautifully wooded. It has a moderatly sized museum full of civil war era artifacts. Calvin Chappelle is the site director. He is knowledgeable and congenial. He knows his stuff and can answer any and all questions about the war. This particular location was where the Confederate Soldiers Home was located. There are several locations on site that are worth seeing that you can drive to. There are 2 cemeteries, a picnic area and several buildings that are original to the site. Bring you camera. Take pictures."

"kept up very nice for state park. almost on level of a federal cemetary. tree markers need to be replaced and benches need to be replaced with painted iron benches. wood even treated wood ages so dirty you dont want to sit down on them. also need more benches on some of the trails for old farts like me. LOL"

"Beautiful, nicely kept up grounds, lovely tribute to the fallen heroes. The museum was small in size, but had so much information it takes awhile to get through it! Many neat pieces of history in it. We enjoyed exploring! We’re not able to go inside the church or barracks, but outside was lovely. We detoured off the hwy on our road trip and so very glad we did!"
