Why you should go…

Founded in 1979, the Delta Blues Museum is Mississippi's oldest music museum and sits in Clarksdale's former Yazoo and Mississippi Valley passenger depot. Inside you will find blues memorabilia and art, including sculpture by Floyd Shaman and photographs by Birney Imes. The centerpiece is the cabin from Stovall Plantation where Muddy Waters lived in his youth, which was restored, toured House of Blues venues and was then rebuilt inside the museum.
