The Alabama Women's Hall of Fame was founded in 1970 to provide a permanent place of honor for Alabama's most outstanding women. Until 2021, the Women's Hall of Fame was located in Marion, Alabama, on the campus of Judson College. The Hall of Fame is now located at the University of West Alabama in Livingston.
