Freedom Riders National Monument
2 stamp stations
Anniston Greyhound Bus Depot
Address: 1031 Gurnee Ave, Anniston, AL 36201
On May 14, 1961, a mob firebombed the Freedom Riders' bus outside Anniston, Alabama, and beat the riders as they escaped the flames; images of the burning bus shocked the nation and forced the federal government to enforce desegregation of interstate travel. The monument preserves the bus burning site and Anniston's former segregated bus station.
Visit the murals and markers downtown and the interim visitor center at City Hall. For a challenge, walk the full Anniston Civil Rights and Heritage Trail through the city.
