After lunch, continue south on South Main to the National Civil Rights Museum. Though actually located at 450 Mulberry Street, there is a walkway that leads from South Main to the museum. The museum is open Monday through Saturday 9:00-5:00 (but closed on Tuesdays) and on Sundays from 1:00-5:00. From June through August, however, the museum's hours are extended to 6:00 p.m.
