Learn more about Athens

Beneath the Alabama sun, Athens reveals its Southern soul through antebellum homes lining historic downtown streets. Duck into local shops where owners share town gossip as freely as directions. The Alabama Veterans Museum offers surprising depth, with artifacts telling personal stories behind historical events. Nature beckons at Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge, where birdwatchers aim binoculars at migrating waterfowl. The Swan Creek Greenway provides an afternoon escape with its covered bridge and archery course. After exploring, join locals at courthouse square restaurants where sweet tea comes automatically and conversations flow easily. Visit during the annual Storytelling Festival when spinning yarns transforms ordinary corners into theaters of imagination.
