Historic Downtown Prattville
In 1833, a man named Daniel Pratt, a native of New Hampshire, came to Alabama to build and sell cotton gins. He built an industrial village that bears his name, Prattville. While most southern towns feature a town square, Pratt's town showcases the original 1850 industrial buildings at heart and center of Prattville. In keeping with his New England heritage, Pratt established his village along the banks of beautiful Autauga Creek which provided water power for his many industries. |
