Madison

The small town of Madison was founded in 1866 and was named after former President James Madison. In the past, like many other places, Madison gained importance through the cultivation of cotton. You can quickly see that the charming city is cherishing its history. In fact, Madison is the largest registered historic district in Georgia. A walk through the beautiful city center is just as worthwhile as a visit to the “Madison-Morgan Cultural Center”, which is located in an impressive restored brick building. The “Cultural Center” is located in the historical quarter and offers a fascinating insight into the regional history. Also worth seeing is the Morgan County African-American Museum, which shows the culture of the African American people in the south. Paved sidewalks, well-tended facades and beautiful plants, as well as local art shops, small specialty shops and nice restaurants dominate the cityscape. The town square in the city center is lined with magnificent magnolias. Historic houses can be visited and outdoor fans will find plenty of opportunities to pass the time in the area.

Etowah Indian Mounds

“Etowah Indian Mounds” is a 220,000 m² archaeological site south of Cartersville on the north bank of the Etowah River. The huge cult and burial mounds were probably built by the Native Americans of the Mississippi culture between 1000 and 1550. A museum in the visitor center serves as an introduction to the culture of the “mound builders” who once lived here. The most famous pieces of the Etowah collection are “Ike” and “Mike”, the two largest images ever discovered in a field of the “Moundbuilder”. “Etowah Indian Mounds” have been declared a National Historic Landmark and are on the National Register of Historic Places.

Fernbank Museum of Natural History

The Fernbank Museum of Natural History in Atlanta is a museum devoted to natural history. It was founded in 1992 and has numerous exhibitions. A special highlight in the atrium of the museum is an Argentinosaurus, the largest dinosaur that has ever been classified. Giganotosaurus is also on display. A special permanent exhibition is the “Walk through Time in Georgia”, which shows the natural history of Georgia and the development of the planet. Another special attraction of the museum is the IMAX Theater, which regularly shows themed films.

Fort Frederica

The “Fort Frederica” on the island of St. Simons dates from the British colonial times and was built in 1736. The main purpose of the construction was to control shipping and protect the borders of the British colonies. Today “Fort Frederica” is a memorial, which shows exhibitions in a visitor center about the indigenous Yamacraw Indian tribe as well as about the colonial times. Some parts of the fortifications have been reconstructed down to the last detail in order to give visitors a closer look. The living history shows, which take place several times a month and in which the actors appear in historical costumes, are particularly popular.
