Wilcox

Wilcox County was established the day before Alabama became a state in December 1819. This Black Belt county is dotted with communities like Pine Apple, Furman, and Canton Bend that are pockets of architectural treasures. And the county seat, Camden, has an annual tour of homes. The Gee’s Bend Quilt Mural Trail highlights the area’s famed, distinctive quilt patterns. Visitors can find the work of the region’s many artists for sale at Black Belt Treasures Cultural Arts Center in Camden. Roland Cooper State Park is on the shores of Dannelly Reservoir, which is renowned in the region for its large populations of game fish.
