Albemarle Charlottesville Historical Society (McIntire Building)

The Albemarle Charlottesville Historical Society collects, preserves, and shares the history of Albemarle County and Charlottesville — the full account. Open free of charge Monday through Saturday, the society runs a research library and museum with rotating exhibits, including recent work on school integration during Massive Resistance and Charlottesville in the 1970s. If you want to understand what actually happened here — not the monument version — this is where you go.
