Alabama was the birthplace of the Confederate submarine that sank a warship—the first in history.
The H.L. Hunley, built in Mobile, Alabama in 1863, was the first combat submarine to successfully sink an enemy ship during wartime. It sank the Union warship USS Housatonic—but mysteriously disappeared afterward. The Hunley wasn’t found until 1995 and raised in 2000.
