I was in Charlotte for a family function when a family member suggested we visit the library at the last minute. We arrived at 4 knowing it closed at 5 p.m. A friendly attendant greeted us at the gate and asked if we were new visitors which we were, and he informed us that the last tour was already progress and we could join in, or explore the grounds on our own. This is an experience everyone young and old would enjoy! The tour is a glimpse into Mr. Graham's life, his ministry, and his travels around the world. The gardens and grounds are beautiful, and there's a memorial garden on site. We're already planning to return to experience the full tour, which is said to be at least an hour and a half long and it's free. The staff was amazing and very knowledgeable. read more

While visiting Charlotte I remembered someone had told me that if I was ever in the area, I should visit this historical and iconic place. Thank God Almighty that I remembered! The entrance is unassuming, with a guard post that directs you into the property. Parking is plenty and it's free just like the entrance to this historical location. I did reserve a time slot ahead and was asked for my bar code. I am pretty sure that you wouldn't get turned away if you did not reserve ahead. We started at the main home which was Billy Grahams childhood home that was moved twice before being set here. The inside is just the way his mother had it. You feel like you have taken a step back in time. You then walk to the library which has a huge cross carved out in front. Everyone who works there is so sweet and caring. They genuinely want you to feel loved and are ready to pray for or with you if you asked. From beginning to end every display, every detail and every picture is mesmerizing. It tells the life story of such and incredible man of God, his beautiful wife, family, friends and team that worked to make his vision a reality. If you had not yet been saved, you would definitely accept God into your life. He truly lived the way God wants us to and he preached love and u it's to all. He reminded everyone that we are ALL children of God. Whether you are a believer or not, no matter what religion you practice or believe in, you respected this honorable man. I would recommend visiting and paying respect at his & his wife's gravesite on the property. The grounds are very serene and tranquil, with lots of well manicured trees, plants and flowers. There is also a large store with something for everyone and a cafeteria where you can get a Billy Dog with the works and a shake. Stop by, make the journey, I guarantee you will not be disappointed! read more

Very serene and beautiful grounds of these several acres of flowers and buildings showcasing Billy Grahams life and travels doing his religious crusade worldwide. His childhood home has been broken down, moved here and reassembled. It was fun seeing the vintage oven, refrigerator, typewriter and the years older furniture style. The main building has replicas built in a western farm style as a tribute to Billy growing up on a dairy farm. There is a section for his wife and the books she has written. Both their gravestones are there as well. She seemed like an amazing woman. I loved the old old Range Rover from the 70's when their son was chilling in Lebanon and ending up help in women in medical causes and working with that organization. I loved that they had a cafe in the back w sandwiches and salads. Also they have soda, tea, and coffee lattes etc. I'm got ice tea for $2.50 so the prices are fair. Whoever keeps the grounds had the flowers looking beautiful read more

This place was absolutely BEAUTIFUL and felt like a place you would only see in movies. The spring flowers were in full bloom when I visited which made it just that much more beautiful. I took the self guided "Journey of Faith" tour and I learned so much about Billy Graham that I never knew before. He was truly such an amazing man! If you are ever in the Charlotte area I highly recommend checking this place out, the tour can take anywhere from 1-3 hours just depends on the pace you want to go. They also have a restaurant and library inside as well, so this is definitely a place you could spend most of your day! read more

I wasn't exactly sure what to expect from this experience, but it was a delightful walk through Billy Graham's life. From walking through his childhood home to seeing all the videos of his evangelical crusades. Billy Graham is an inspiration to all Christians to share the good news with a world in need. I enjoyed seeing the pictures and videos throughout his ministry and learning that his main two ministry partners were with him to the end of all of their careers. The library tour includes a time where people can respond to the gospel and pray with staff. I hope that the message of Christ continues to spread through this ministry. read more

I mean if you're not rating this 5 stars, good luck getting to heaven! I came the day before Thanksgiving while dealing with several horrible life blows in the prior 5 days. I had already planned to make the 2 hour drive from Raleigh anyway, but now, I went because I needed to make this visit. The staff was incredibly friendly, as one would expect. After I finished my tour of the exhibits, two people prayed for me, including the chaplain of the library. The outside grounds are nicely kept and I like that the library/museum has the farmhouse feel to it. It feels very homey and cozy. Definitely spend some time in the bookstore, there is a lot of good merch for sale. Although $30 for a coffee mug was a little too over the top for me. Let us always remember the legacy of the Grahams and may we always be aware of God's divine and loving presence. read more

Our senior adults at church took a trip up the Billy Graham Library. I've heard about his library but never knew much about it. This was a very interesting and informative experience. They had workers and volunteers that helped in each section of the library. It starts with how he first got saved, started school and preaching and then as an evangelist. The last section has photos and videos of his funeral. So much great information in each section of the library. There must be 1,000 of photos to look at. Each section has short videos to watch as well as photos and actual personal items to look at. We were there for about 4 hours. We also had lunch there which was very good. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich and it was good. Definitely recommend this for all ages! Added note; I was the driver for the church bus. It's a 38' motor coach. This place does have a nice place for drop off and pick up but the bus parking area is very tight and very low tree limbs. I must have hit two to three low limbs while leaving the area and going to park where they told to go. * Btw; the bus is only 11' 8" tall. If you do drive a bus to this location because mindful of low tree limbs. read more

We had a very enjoyable visit. The story of Billy Graham is very much his testimony to a life committed to doing God's will. The library tour is the presentation of the way to salvation. The exhibitions and presentations are very well done and were of interest to me. You'll definitely get your money's worth, it's free. If you're in the area it's worth the visit. There is a cafe with food, drinks, and coffees. read more

Such a cool, inspiring, and educational experience! As a lifelong Christian I've always known of Billy Graham as a great evangelist, but I learned so much of the details and scope of his work. Every part of the museum is so well-done, even down to the food court area designed to mimic his upbringing. We visited around Christmastime, and they had a live nativity with animals and everything! The building itself is beautiful, and the staff were knowledgeable and helpful. read more

Today, Kayla Beth Fields ,Saige, Deacon & I toured the Boyhood Home of Pastor Billy Graham, Evangelist Minister and Prophet of our Lord Jesus Christ. This tour was amazing!! Absolutely FREE for your enjoyment and learning. Located near I-77 in Charlotte, NC off the Billy Graham Parkway. Very easy to locate. There are three sections, the house tour (self guided main floor only with his family furniture and photos). The Dairy Barn Museum with a 1.5 hr tour which is self guided and video prompted and then there is the final resting place where Ruth and Rev Graham's earthly bodies are resting in a garden of Azalea Bushes. There is a Gift shop, prayer rooms, restrooms and restaurant on site as well. Handicap accessible. read more

My husband and I were in the Charlotte area, and I had seen this come up on the map. I didn't know what to expect, because I didn't get a chance to look into it before we headed there. What a surprise! First off, the doorway is a huge cross when you walk in. Absolutely beautiful and what a beautiful reminder of Jesus' sacrifice. As you walk in, there's a welcome desk. Everyone was so wonderful! There is a free tour that takes about an hour and a half. We thought we might just see a building, but it was so much more than that! We did as much of the tour as we could, but when we made plans to go there we didn't anticipate a tour or staying long. There is a cafe for some food and drinks, and there is also a gift shop with all kinds of things and lots of books whether they are bibles in many different translations, study bibles, books on spiritual warfare, devotional, etc. My husband ended up getting a Billy Graham study Bible, and he loves it. Around the path outside, are the graves of Billy and his wife. We had a lovely visit here. Anyone who knows the Graham family, has been to one of his events, is a Christian, or loves a truly inspirational story, would enjoy this. We plan to bring my in laws when they visit. Billy was a strong man of faith and lived for Jesus making it his mission to bring as many to Christ across the world as possible. When you walk out of the building back through the cross, if you look up, you will see written "I am coming quickly." A reminder for us all to be ready. read more

Everyone in the world needs to experience this place at least once. It can't be explained. Only experienced. I can tell you what is there but to understand why I highly recommend this place, you will have to find out yourself. I could feel the presence of God in that house he grew up in. And the feeling I got when the staff opened those doors to the building where the gallery is housed made us feel so welcomed. I will have to come back for refreshments because I arrived too late for the exhibits and other activities they had to offer. But the gallery was amazing! It was a creative and illustrative way to explain Billy Graham's ministry and the impact it had on the world. And even if you are not into these types of things I would nevertheless encourage everyone to go.I'm so surprised this place is basically ran by donations. I was both delighted, touched and expressed with everything from the house, to the gallery to the large mural that has a special visual surprise when you take a picture of it. I don't want to give it away but here is a clue... focus on the tomb of Christ (or the lighting from your picture). Shalom read more

The Billy Graham Library was recommended by my family. They had all been there before. I had not. I ended up being pretty well underwhelmed by it. First of all, after driving up a long driveway, you come to a guard shack with a gate. The gate was closed and so we were not sure if the place was even open. It was but that was not clear until the guard came out and directed us to the parking lot. Not sure how necessary that really was. After parking, the first thing you come to is the childhood home of Billy Graham which has been moved brick by brick twice. Only the ground floor has been preserved/renovated. There are a few rooms to go in and a couple of docents to provide some history. This was the most interesting part of the library. Next we made our way into the big barn looking place where tours begin. There was an old truck and an animatronic cow that were cool. There is also a good size book store/gift shop and a cafe. That was about it. At least for the self guided portion of this place. We chose not to take the tour. Perhaps we missed a lot having not taken the tour. But we really were not that interested. That is on us. I feel that I would have experienced more if guided tours were optional and I could have gone through the exhibits at my own pace. read more

This is our second visit to the Library and the first since Billy Graham died. The museum is so special as it testifies to God's hand on the life of Billy Graham. I was so impressed with the videos and pictures. Their use of technology was so cool. One room there was a spinning globe and a video was playing on the globe. Another room showed older TV's behind 4-5 windows. Each window was actually a video screen. It was so cool to see the video played out switching back and forth from screen to screen. Throughout the museum the message of the gospel is clearly presented and as you walkout the last room you walk into a prayer room. We also walked to the graveside of Billy Graham and his wife and Cliff Barrows his wife and George Beverley Shea. The grounds are so beautiful and peaceful and everything is FREE. You can make a donation. Make sure you checkout the bookstore. So many books by many well known Christian authors. This museum is a must visit for anyone...especially Christians. read more

I grew up close to here and still try to come up and see family. My aunts and uncles are in their 90s and eldest is almost (Nov) 102! And I must admit I always carry a small cooler with me to bring home a Piedmont treat - Livermush. All my kids and grandkids love it so the 13 pounds I can pack is shared. But we have never visited the Billy Graham Library. I can't understand why. So this trip we set aside time to see it all. It is an amazing place dedicated to an amazing but humble man that introduced hundreds of thousands of people to Jesus Christ. We were fortunate to have been ushers and helpers in a Crusade held in Tampa. And we support through our church Franklin Graham's ministries, especially Operation Christmas Child that takes shoeboxes (now mostly plastic boxes) to bring toys, shoes, books, sports equipment, fishing lines & hooks and more to children that otherwise would have nothing. The tour is divided into a number of displays, audio visuals and films telling the story of Billy's life journey from country preacher to evangelist to multiple presidents, heads of state, even communist countries. It's a marvelous and inspiring story that will give you a fresh inspiration to also declare God's Good News to the world. read more

The Billy Graham Library exceeded my expectations in every way. We visited Billy Graham's house and were warmly welcomed by tour guides who explained every aspects of the house. The house was beautiful and had many pictures and historic items. Following the house tour, the library has multiple rooms detailing Billy Graham's upbringing and influence to Christian culture. The whole walk took around one hour to go through. The end of the library had a bookstore and dairy bar. The bookstore had an expansive variety of theological books. The dairy bar had very good service and food. There were plenty of seating options for dining. Outside the library were the tombstones of Billy Graham and Ruth Graham. Every staff member who assisted in directing and serving were very kind and friendly. I would recommend visiting this place 10/10. read more

It was so much more than we originally thought it'd be. It was less of a shrine about Billy Graham and more about Jesus. We could really feel the presence of God in this place and even had a staff member reach out to pray over us. The exhibits are well done. The dairy barn is typical snack food, nothing to write home about but it was nice to have something about spending 2 hours there. We can't wait to bring family back! read more

Billy Graham Library - Foot of the cross - Libraries Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

This is a very well done museum and library. The Journey of Faith tour goes through thirteen rooms explaining Billy Graham's life, work, family, & legacy. I'm not the most religious - loosely Catholic - so I really knew nothing about Billy Graham, but I feel I really understand his work & impact now. I didn't realize he'd advised so many presidents and world leaders! The property is beautiful and the staff is SO friendly. Everyone was so kind and informative while also not being pushy/preachy if that's not your thing. I say this because I think this is an educational and interesting experience whether you're religious or not - it's NC's most visited site for a reason! Definitely worth checking out while in Charlotte. They have a nice restaurant too. read more

What a gem! Definitely a must stop when in town. Wonderful place to visit with family.

The Billy Graham Library is a must go when you are in the area. You don't want to miss this opportunity. The library takes you on a journey of the life and ministry of Billy Graham, and his wife Ruth. You will start the journey in the barn, and enter various rooms with different themes out of Billy's live. Some have video presentations, others have pictures, artifacts, and other interesting memories from the well lived live of America's Evangelist to the world. Enjoy a walk through the garden were both Billy and Ruth are laid to rest. You will not regret it! read more

Being in Charlotte, you have to come visit the Billy Graham Library. Truly a great museum that lays out the life of an extraordinary individual. Going from exhibit to exhibit, you can really see and feel how much love, passion, and compassion he has for people and the impact that he left on countless lives around the world. His childhood home, which is also on the grounds, is well preserved and allows you to get a glimpse of what his life was like growing up. The people that work here are all extremely friendly and helpful. Really great experience coming here :) read more

Fantastic spot to come to anytime you're near Charlotte! Just a few minutes from the airport, this beautiful estate is soul moving. I walked around the grounds before entering the museum and saw the gravestones. Billy and his wife. I loved her quote "construction complete, thank you for your patience". Billy was a beautifully humble disciple of God, used his God given gift of evangelism locally and globally. I was awed by his wife's ongoing support of him as he was away from the home so much yet they had a strong support system. I was very very moved. read more

The Billy Graham library is a must see! I'm glad I took the time to make the trip, it's truly amazing.

We came here on a Monday and made a reservation for 11am just a few hours before that. It turns out there was no need for a reservation as it was not that busy (by their standards). We stopped at the gate and then parked easily very close to the building. The parking lot is huge so I can't imagine how busy it gets during its peak. We first walked through Billy's house, which was transported brick by brick to its current location. We then entered the main museum, where they greeted us and gave the kids an activity sheet, which kept them engaged the whole time. You then move room by room through the museum. Some at your own pace, and some have videos. The gospel is presented well and clearly. I love that the focus wasn't on Billy, as he would have it. After the tour, kids traded in their activity cards for a prize and we got some books from the bookstore. We did not eat at the cafe, but did walk around the grounds for a few minutes, checking out the tombs. All of this was FREE and sponsored by donors. What will your response be to the gospel presented? read more

The Library is a special and unique experience based where one is at on their spirtual walk so it's one of those place you need to visit for yourself. For a man who was honored and pastored to so many of our Presidents - the library was very educational and impactful for those who are seeking to embrace their knowledge and Charlotte history. Billy Graham was named North Carolinas favorite son for good reason as he left a long and lasting impact on the state of North Carolina and the world. After the Journey of Faith, as visitors were invited to their Ruth's Attic Bookstore which features a great selections of Bible, books by the Graham family and other noted authors; classic Billy Graham sermons on DVD; plus a wide selection of gifts, including music, apparel, and specialty items. You can also see Billy Grahams pulpit that he used at Crusade event around the world. There was a chance to enjoy specialty coffees, soups, salads, ice creams and Mother Grahams pound cake at their Graham Brothers Dairy Bar. Admission is free, but if you'd like to make a contribution, donation boxes are available in the lobby. read more

It's a beautiful looking place. However, it's not inviting for people like Me . I went with my family & we all felt very out of place. I didn't see any representation on the walls or in the displays they had. I also didn't like how the horses, camels & goats looked. They looked sad & depressed. I don't want to give any stars honestly. I would never go back or recommend anyone to go. read more

I know I'm going against the majority here not giving this 5 stars, but I was kinda disappointed here. I would recommend you come for the nativity scene and decorations during Christmas time, but the actual library, could be avoided and you wouldn't miss much. Billy Graham was an amazing preacher, and helped millions on their path to salvation, and the library and it's tour(which for some reason starts with an animatronic cow named Bessie) do illustrate his life. However, it's confusing and not linear at all, and meanders between videos that are similar and inescapable. That's right, you are literally locked behind a door that does not open until the movie ends! This would be much more interesting if it incorporated more info on different crusades, a timeline, or specific places he went, instead of the endless videos and photos with various famous people or foreign leaders. The items enclosed within the displays are interesting, from letters to a couple handguns turned in by gang members after attending a crusade(now that's a story I want to hear more about!) In the end, you are forced to watch another video about Billy, which is sort of an alter call at the end, and are handed cards you can fill out if you want to learn more about becoming a Christian. While this is definitely a Billy Graham thing to do, it feels kinda awkward, and wasn't something I was expecting. It's even more awkward that the doors then open I to the gift shop where there is a huge statue of Billy Graham casting seeds... Anyway, the best part of this trip here was the Nativity scene and the Christmas lights hung up everywhere. The scene was on point, and had a couple camels, sheep, a donkey and even random lemur in a cage! There are also carriage rides through the grounds which look really awesome at night with all the lights in the trees, highly recommended! read more

The Billy Graham Library and campus is definitely worth a visit no matter if you're a local or just visiting Charlotte. We thoroughly enjoyed our time learning about Billy Graham and the legacy he left behind. The tour is self paced and free so there is no reason not to spend a little time learning about the life of this man. Presidents from the last Dwight D Eisenhower to Donald Trump met with Billy Graham seeking his counsel. Lots of history to see in addition to Billy's work and life. read more

Absolutely pristine! From the moment you enter through the giant cross, you are greeted and treated like royalty (which is not bad at all when you consider that entry is totally free!) Before embarking on the Journey of Faith, kicked off by Bessie the Cow, my wife and I enjoyed a delightful lunch at the Dairy Bar. We split a very fresh salad with grilled chicken ($8 w/fountain drink) and a pulled pork pork BBQ. We topped things off with a couple of $2 gingerbread men cookies and a coconut iced cupcake. The menu is simple otherwise but everything looked good. Service is superb. The Journey of Faith is an hour and a half tour thru 13 rooms and is expertly done. It details the life of Billy and Ruth Graham and most importantly his walk of faith. It is an interesting journey for both the Christ-follower and seeker alike. Beware however that it is a one-way trip with no bathrooms until near the end so... For Christmas, there is a live nativity, carriage rides ($8 adults, $4 kids), caroling and cocoa and cider for a reasonable $2 each. Again everything else is FREE, including eternal salvation. This place is definitely a Gotta Try. The grounds are relaxing and has lots of nooks and crannies, you could easily spend a half a day here, especially at Christmas! read more

Visited the library last night to experience the Christmas at the Library. It was fabulous. There was carriage rides and cocoa, several different groups caroling and the live nativity to enjoy. Also there was the childhood home of the late great Billy Graham to see and tour. The library was also quite a fun place to see as it had a cute gift store with all sorts of gifts and memorabilia to see and purchase . There was a dining area to grab a bite to eat and on the weekend there's even a Full dinner served which includes turkey or ham and all the fixings . A really wonderful and affordable family fun time. The carriage rides were 15 minutes with a free pic and a lovely view of the grounds .

On my final full day in Charlotte, I was debating whether to go to the NASCAR Hall of Fame or the Billy Graham Library. I passed by the former every day that I was staying uptown. I'm not a huge NASCAR fan. Then again, I am not a strongly religious person, either. However, I chose visiting the Billy Graham Library. I am so glad that I did. My dad watched Billy Graham preach the gospel on TV over the years. I have fond memories of watching them with him as a little girl. I remember at the end of each telecast that you could send your correspondence to an address in Minneapolis, MN. It's interesting that I would end up living in that state years later. The headquarters moved to Charlotte, NC, not too far from where Billy Graham was born and raised. Charlotte has Billy Graham Parkway, which honours how important his contributions were both locally and globally. His library highlights how wonderful a person he was and his contributions on this planet. I drove over to the library. There is plenty of parking at the library and admission is free. When you walk over to the library, you see the Graham family house on the left, which was his childhood home. On the right, you have the memorial gardens. Billy Graham died earlier this year. He is buried next to his wife, Ruth. There are also important memorial sites for Shea and Barrows, who contributed to Graham's ministry through music. Everyone is friendly. I offered to help take a photo of a group of three family members. One had difficulties using the other's phone, so I offered to take photos of them. In return, the woman asked if she could take my photo. Nice! I am horrible at taking selfies. I walked into the main entrance. Volunteers open the door and welcome you in. It's a wonderful place to learn about who Graham was. You get introduced to Bessie, a talking cow, and learn about Graham's upbringing. Each section of the library is themed. There is one room dedicated to his late wife, Ruth. I didn't realize that she was born in Shanghai, as her parents were missionaries. The video and information in this room showed just how much he loved and respected her. He spoke lovingly about her and admitted that she knew more about God than he did. There are tons of videos and artefacts throughout this amazing library. There was a briefcase that he used for over 25 years, for instance. I appreciated watching old footage of Graham preaching the gospel and how effective an orator he was. You also felt comforted when he reached out to everyone during hard times, such as the 911 attacks. I felt good visiting this library. There is something peaceful about being here and learning about a decent human being. If you want to buy souvenirs and books, you can purchase them at Ruth's Attic Bookstore. You are never forced to donate any money at the library. You can if you want to. You can also reach out and speak to a spiritual person if you want and pray in the prayer room. You can also visit the Graham Brothers Dairy Bar, and grab a bite or drink. The washrooms are cute, with huge basins and a country feel to them. If you fill out a feedback form and hand it in at the information desk, you get a small thank-you with a book, magnet, and information all in a tote bag. Again, you are never obligated to fill it out. I went ahead and signed the visitor book before I left. I helped take photos for another group of folks before paying my respects to the Grahams and more in the memorial area. I then visited the Graham family home, which was Billy Graham's childhood home. Whether you are a devout Christian or a tourist who isn't religious, I would recommend coming here for a visit. I learned a ton and felt even more hopeful than I already was after my visit.

(This review is for Dairy Bar, which is the restaurant at the BG Library.) I'll admit, this one is random even for me. But, I had a coupon for Dairy Bar and as a Charlotte native I have never been to the Billy Graham Library, so I thought why not? I had the bbq with cole slaw, and it was excellent. The meat had that great smokey flavor and the cole slaw was more vinegar than mayo, which I like. Didn't try any of the ice cream or desserts, but looked like a nice selection. Note - You can walk right up to the restaurant, so you don't have to do the tour if you don't want to. read more

Billy Graham Library - Libraries Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

What can I say about my visit to the library...I felt all kinds of emotions. I am a Christian: born and raised. This trip made me reminisce of my past, rethink my present, and dream of my future as a child of GOD. I learned through the tour that Billy Graham really walked with GOD during his lifetime. I struggle with that a lot, and this year didn't help me one: pandemic and all the worldly hate. I believe Billy Graham struggled fighting for what is right during his time as an evangelist, but he never lost faith and kept his path. The many quotes written and plastered on the walls gave me encouragement though. It calmed me a bit and made me forget the outside chaos while touring the place. "I've never seen a man who recieved God and regretted it." This quote rang so hard in my heart. Wish America knew this. Anyways to review this place I have to say 5 stars isn't enough. Parking is very spacious. All the staff are sweet and very informative. The tour is more than 1 hrs long. And best of all Mr and Mrs Graham are resting there. I was not able to see them when they were alive, but I had a chance to thank them for all the hard work they did for my parents' motherland. It was an honor to stand right there in front of their graves. I will definitely visit again when I am in NC. Don't hesitate to come here! read more
