Monroeville (Alabama)

Monroeville is a city in the Gulf Coast region of Alabama.

Understand
Monroeville bears the moniker of "The Literary Capital of Alabama" because, rather incongruously, it was the childhood home of both Harper Lee of To Kill a Mockingbird fame and Truman Capote. In fact, they were even childhood friends.

Get in
This town is a bit off the beaten track. You can access it via highways 84 or 21 from Interstate 65.

Sleep
There's also a Mockingbird Inn next door if you're feeling a bit more nostalgic about your literary memories.
