About Jackson
As the capital of Mississippi since 1821, Jackson's turbulent history is well documented. Sherman's troops burned the town three times during the Civil War. In the 1960's, Jackson was a hotbed of activity during the Civil Rights movement. In spite of this turmoil, the city has retained its southern charm and today, delicately blends its antebellum heritage with a modern, forward-looking sensibility. The growing health and technological industries drive the economy, while a respected downtown arts complex makes Jackson culturally sophisticated. Nevertheless, visitors are still drawn to the numerous historical landmarks, such as City Hall (1846), the Governor's Mansion (1842), the Old Capitol Museum, and The Alamo Theater. The Mississippi Museum of Natural Science features a 1,700 square foot "Swamp" and an impressive aquarium. At night, check out some down home blues at several hopping juke joints.
Did you know?
Which came first? The city or the farm? The city! The Mississippi Agriculture and Forestry Museum complex looks as though it was abandoned in the middle of a growing city. However, the city was here first. All ten farm buildings were brought to Jackson from Jefferson Davis County, Mississippi and placed as they were prior to the move. The site resembles a small Mississippi town as it would have looked during the 1920's.
