About Billy Graham Library

Opened in 2007 on the grounds of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association's headquarters, this 40,000-square-foot building is styled after a dairy barn, a nod to Graham's farm childhood. The Journey of Faith tour takes about 90 minutes through multimedia presentations, photos and memorabilia from his ministry. You can also tour the restored Graham family homeplace and the Memorial Prayer Garden, where Billy and Ruth Graham are buried. Ruth's Attic Bookstore and the Graham Brothers Dairy Bar are on site.
