Municipal Flag - Montgomery, Alabama - Municipal Flags on Waymarking.com

The city of Montgomery was incorporated in 1819 and became the state capital in 1846. It served as the first capital of the Confederate States of America for a few months before that government moved to Richmond, Virginia. In the twentieth century, Montgomery became a center for civil rights with the work of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The city has embraced its past and has incorporated both the Confederacy and Civil Rights in its tourist materials, emblem and flag.
