Historic Mitchelville Freedom Park

Walk the Path of Freedom Step onto sacred ground at Historic Mitchelville Freedom Park, the site of the first self-governed town of formerly enslaved people in the United States. This powerful, open-air experience invites visitors to walk the paths of resilience and freedom, where the Gullah people built lives, schools, churches, and a new vision of liberty. Through educational exhibits, cultural events, and a stunning natural landscape, Mitchelville is both a tribute to the past and a call to remember. A visit here isn’t just a history lesson—it’s a heart lesson. Come by 40 Harriet Tubman Way, Hilton Head Island, SC 29926. Badge: Gullah Geechee Owned Tag: Tings ta Do (Tours & Sites)
