Castleberry, in south-central Conecuh County, began as a stagecoach stop. The Baggett family first settled the area in 1817, and the Castleberry family arrived in 1830; their home became a relay station for the stagecoaches, known simply as "Castleberry's." By the 1850s the stop had drawn hotels, a blacksmith shop and a turpentine still, and the first public school opened in 1854.
The name became official in the 1860s, when the Mobile and Montgomery Railroad built its line through town. In the early 1900s strawberries became the area's most important cash crop, and in 1918 the railroad shipped 150 carloads of strawberries from Castleberry. In 1987 the governor declared Castleberry the "Strawberry Capital of Alabama," and the town still celebrates with its annual Strawberry Festival on the third Saturday in April.
