Why you should go…

The B.B. King Museum and Delta Interpretive Center in Indianola tells King's story alongside the history of the Mississippi Delta. Galleries move from the Delta of the 1930s to Memphis radio in the 1950s and his rise in the 1960s, ending with his Rolls Royce and custom El Camino. The museum incorporates the restored brick cotton gin where King worked in the 1940s, and he is buried in its memorial courtyard beside a bronze of him holding Lucille.
