Havana is named for cigars. Shade tobacco was grown in Gadsden County from about 1829, and when the Georgia, Florida and Alabama Railroad was built from Cuthbert, Georgia, to Tallahassee, it bypassed the community of Salem by about a mile. In 1902, after the line was finished, many settlers moved east to the tracks and platted a new town on land owned by Sam Z. Fletcher, and construction began in earnest in 1904.
A local teacher, James Mathewson, proposed the name Havana, believing the region's hand-rolled cigars were as good as those from Havana, Cuba; the Havana Garden Club's marker says the name honored the "Little Cubie" shade tobacco grown so profitably in the area. The Town of Havana was incorporated on December 5, 1906, and the railroad town became an important shipping point for farm products and tobacco. On March 16, 1916, fire destroyed 26 business buildings, leaving only two stores standing. As the tobacco industry declined, Havana reinvented itself as a destination for antiques, art galleries and specialty shops.
