List of people executed in Alabama

The following is a list of people executed by the U.S. state of Alabama since capital punishment was resumed in the United States in 1976. All of the 83 people (82 men and 1 woman) have been executed at the Holman Correctional Facility, near Atmore, Alabama. All executions between December 2002 and 2023 were conducted by lethal injection. In January 2024, the Alabama Department of Corrections conducted the first ever execution via nitrogen hypoxia.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

Prior to 1983, an 18-year moratorium on executions was observed under the direction of the Supreme Court of the United States. Alabama previously executed 153 people between 1927 and 1965.<ref name=Trawick>Gordon, Tom (June 12, 2009) "Alabama Death Row inmate Jack Trawick apologizes before execution." Birmingham News</ref>
