About Clark Gable Museum

The museum recreates rooms matching those of the house where Clark Gable was born in 1901, furnished in period style and holding several of his childhood belongings, including a sled. Visitors can also see one of Gable's actual automobiles, a classic 1954 Cadillac. Staff members are available to answer questions about his life and career. A separate store on site sells Gable collectibles and Gone With The Wind memorabilia. Tours are arranged by appointment only.
