Église baptiste Ebenezer
Historic Ebenezer Baptist Church was the spiritual and leadership center of the King family for generations. Guests will learn how Rev. A.D.

Fire Station No. 6
At Historic Fire Station No. 6 on Auburn Avenue, guests learn how even a neighborhood firehouse reveals the reality of segregation in Atlanta.

This stop shows how segregation touched every part of life, from schools and churches to public services, and how the pain Dr. King witnessed as a child helped shape the courage, conviction, and vision that would later move the world.
