Medgar and Myrlie Evers Home National Monument

Jackson, MS

The home where civil-rights leader Medgar Evers lived with his family and where he was assassinated in the driveway in 1963. The National Park Service preserves the house; interior visitation is structured around current tour availability rather than unrestricted entry.
