Cassville, Georgia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cassville, Georgia, is a community located in Bartow County in the U.S. state of Georgia. It was originally the county seat, before the name was changed from Cass County. The seat was moved to Cartersville because General Sherman destroyed what was the thriving town of Cassville in his Atlanta Campaign of 1864. Cassville, although no longer incorporated, is said to encompass an area beginning at the Cassville Road-Firetower Road intersection and extending a mile in all directions. Cassville is home to one of the oldest post office buildings in the country and Cass Grocery, a general store that has stood since 1800. It is considered part of metro Atlanta but still is gripping its ol' small town atmosphere. Population estimates of the area show Cassville may have a population near 5000.

Some points of interest include but are not limited too, the Cassville History Museum, Cassville Visitors Information (located at the volunteer fire department) and also Cassville Confederate Cemetery located on Cass-White Road. Cassville lies in between Adairsville, Georgia and Cartersville, Georgia right off of Highway 41.
