Rickwood Field was built in 1910 by Rick Woodward, an industrialist and the owner of the Birmingham Barons. Rickwood Field is the oldest surviving professional baseball park in the country and is listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. Sitting on 12.7 acres, the park was the first concrete and steel stadium in the minor leagues.
The Friends of Rickwood is an organization that has taken care of the historic park since 1992 and they are currently restoring it as a “working museum.”
