Elvis Presley Birthplace & Museum
Overview
The most significant landmark of Tupelo's modern history is a modest, two-room house where the King of Rock & Roll was born January 8, 1935. From this humble beginning, Elvis Presley began his swift rise to become the world's most popular entertainer. The house, built by his father with $180, draws over 100,000 visitors each year from across the world and is part of the 15-acre Elvis Presley Park. The home is a Mississippi landmark and the centerpiece of the park which also includes a museum that chronicles his lift, "Elvis at 13" statue, Elvis' childhood church, and more.
