Tours are $10 and it's money well spent because the docents tell you the massive history that comes from this church. It's the place where the civil rights movement took place. MLK and the other leaders met here and started a revolution. 4 little girls were tragically killed when the KKK bombed the church in 1963. Important history for all of us to learn. Then walk across the street to the civil rights museum and the sculpture park. The whole experience was very moving. Go!!

I was able to go in right after service ended on a Sunday. You are not allowed to take pictures downstairs.

I had visited the Church some years ago, but I only saw the outside and the adjacent Park. On this occasion, my wife and I registered online and paid a very modest fee. The Church is lovely. Our guides were wonderful, and I enjoyed sitting in the sanctuary and hearing about the stain glass. I wish I could attend a service at this beautiful place. One small problem slightly marred our experience. A large church group was also visiting, and they allowed a toddler to run and roam without restraint or even a gentle admonishment during the presentation.

This was an amazing experience. We reserved online then showed up for our tour. We were given masks to wear. There are two videos and then you are taken around the room of exhibits by a knowledgeable guide. Then there's another video in a separate room and you're taken to the church proper. Be sure to see the commemorative plaque outside as well. This is living history and is more than well worth anyone's time. The tour is appropriate for all ages, and the guides do a great job of making history come alive in a way that is hopeful for the future. I highly recommend purposefully taking a trip here.

In 2024 we were turned away because we refused to wear a mask of submission for entry. The Massive Hoax On America was bad enough in 2020 and,
