Where a mob of segregationists and Klansmen attacked Freedom Riders on Sunday, May 14, 1961. The station is not open to the public, but next to it is a mural and information about the event.
Six miles away from the Greyhound station, the bus carrying the riders out of town broke down due to the damage done by the mob. Meanwhile the segregationists had been chasing the bus, and they set fire to it and attacked the escaping passengers. The field where the bus was burned is now marked with a sign.
