Greene

Greene County was founded one day before Alabama became a state. It boasts dozens of historically significant buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places, including the impressive Kirkwood Mansion in Eutaw. This rich architectural history is celebrated each October with the Eutaw Pilgrimage. Steeped in folk art and music, the county hosts the Black Belt Roots Festival in Eutaw each August. Jim Bird's eccentric sculptures delight travelers on Highway 43 near Forkland.
