Now you can share in the rich heritage of Humphreys County at the Catfish Capitol in beautiful downtown Belzoni, Mississippi. Located in the newly renovated IB&B Depot, the Catfish Capitol is a testament to the history and culture of the land and its people.

Outside the Capitol, sculptures fashioned from spawning cans, hatchery tanks, and seining nets dot the landscape. In fact, Belzoni boasts the largest collection of outdoor sculpture per capita in the State.

 

The Catfish Capitol is open Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
