The National Underground Railroad Freedom Center is an exploration of the Underground Railroad era and an educational resource about basic freedoms and human rights. Using exhibits and programs to tell the story of how slaves crossed over the Ohio River with the aid of a secret network of safe houses and abolitionists known as the Underground Railroad, the Freedom Center honors the country's past while fostering an open dialogue about the current issues of slavery and human trafficking. Among the permanent exhibits at the Freedom Center, you'll find the From Slavery to Freedom exhibit, which showcases a historical timeline detailing how slavery was introduced to the Americas and how it was ultimately abolished at the end of the American Civil War. Exploring who the enslaved were, why they were brought here, how they lived and worked, who their trusted allies were and how they achieved freedom, the exhibit provides an overview of three centuries of enslavement.
