Discover Cusseta
Cusseta, the seat of Chattahoochee County, is named for Kasihta, called the "Peace Town of the Lower Creeks" and one of the two great Muskogee towns of the Creek Confederation. Kasihta is mentioned in accounts of Hernando de Soto's expedition in 1540. In 1686 Spanish troops from Apalachee burned it at a site on the Chattahoochee River, and its people moved to the Ocmulgee River to be near English traders, returning after the Yamasee War to a site where Fort Benning's headquarters now stands. They remained there until 1836, and a census of 1832 and 1833 counted 1,918 residents.
More about Cusseta
Chattahoochee County was created by the Georgia General Assembly on February 13, 1854, from parts of Muscogee and Marion counties and named for the river on its western border. Its first officers were commissioned on March 11, 1854, and its courthouse, built that year of longleaf pine heart lumber by enslaved laborers, is now preserved at Westville in Columbus. The commissioners named the new county seat Cusseta, and it was incorporated on December 22, 1855; it remains the only incorporated city in the county. A brick school was built in Cusseta in 1911, and on June 6, 1922, four rural schools were consolidated with it; it burned in 1969. A television tower built near the city in 1962 was briefly the world's tallest structure. In 2003 the city and county formed a consolidated government.
