Discover Fort Mitchell
Fort Mitchell, about ten miles south of Phenix City across the Chattahoochee from Fort Benning, grew up around a garrisoned fort built for defense during the Creek War of 1813 and 1814. It stood on the Old Federal Road, known to frontiersmen and Indians as the Three Notched Trail.
More about Fort Mitchell
The area lay in the heart of the Creek Nation, a confederacy of independent towns that at its height numbered about 22,000 people in more than 70 towns across Alabama and Georgia; many of the most important Lower Creek towns lined the Chattahoochee. In 1836 Fort Mitchell was one of the principal gathering places for the forced removal of the Creeks to the West. Weakened by starvation and cheated of their land and belongings, thousands, some in chains, made the journey to what is now Oklahoma. Today the Chattahoochee Indian Heritage Center at Fort Mitchell honors the Creeks and other Native peoples of the lower Chattahoochee Valley, with a sculpture representing the Sacred Fire at the heart of every Creek town. The community is also home to the Fort Mitchell Historic Site and the Fort Mitchell National Cemetery, established in 1987 for U.S. veterans.
