Plains High School Visitor Center and Museum

Address: 300 North Bond Street, Plains, GA 31780

This park in Plains, Georgia preserves the world that shaped Jimmy Carter, the 39th president: his boyhood farm, the high school both he and Rosalynn attended (now the visitor center and museum), and the railroad depot that served as his 1976 campaign headquarters. Exhibits include his 2002 Nobel Peace Prize and a replica of the Resolute desk.

Explore the farm's barns and crops, sit at old school desks in the museum, and see the campaign depot. For a challenge, tour all the sites in one full day, tracing a life from peanut farm to presidency to humanitarian work.
