Victorian Village

- This picturesque district is located in Downtown Memphis and features some of the finest, grandest Victorian-style homes in the city, built between approximately 1846 and the 1890's. Some of the houses in this district include the Massey House, Mallory-Neely House, Harrison-Goyer-Lee House, and Woodruff-Fontaine House.

The Lorraine Motel

- This historic motel is the site of Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination in 1968, and is the base of the National Civil Rights Museum, a complex of museums in Memphis that trace the history of the Civil Rights Movement starting in the 17th century.

Court Square

- This scenic park was initially set aside for the construction of a court house in 1819, but the site was built into Memphis' first schoolhouse instead. One of Court Square's most enjoyed and prominent features is the Hebe Fountain, donated in 1876, and represents the Cupbearer to the Greek Gods, Hebe. Court Square was placed on the National Register of Historic places in 1982.
