This location is the W. C. HANDY BIRTHPLACE, MUSEUM & LIBRARY.
As a fan of blues music, I had no idea about the full history. W C Handy is the «father» of Blues, not only for being the first for including the name Blues in the title of a composition, but also for writing 5 book on the the history of Blues music. Without him, much of early blues history would be lost.
The museum is attached to the cabin in which he was born (decorated with period pieces not original to the cabin before it was moved.) For music lovers who understand how blues has influenced later musical forms, I think this is a great place to visit. It is a very small museum, but has a lot of memorabilia from Handy’s life, and many donated items.
