This was the state capital from 1820 to 1825 before being flooded too often. It was also a center of cotton distribution, and during the infamous Civil War, it was the location of the infamous Confederate Castle Morgan prison 1863 and 1865. Another huge flood occurred and by the early 1900s, most of the buildings had been destroyed. Visit the museum and the Crocheron Columns.
