Fayette County was created on Dec. 20, 1824 , from portions
of Tuscaloosa and Marion counties. It is located in the northwest-central
section of the state. The county was named for Gen. Lafayette
who was touring Alabama at the time of the county's formation.
Fayette is the county seat of our county.
As early as 1821, a small village existed at the present
Old Town (near Five Points) and was called La Fayette. From
that location settlers could see out over the Sipsey River
Valley. It was this village that would over the years become
present day Fayette.
These days, Fayette is a flourishing city with abundant natural
resources and outstanding industries. It is a city with glorious
past, a prosperous present and an excellent future.
Fayette, the best kept secret!
We're proud of Fayette, Alabama and the quality of life we
offer. Located in northwest Alabama at the foot of the Appalachian
mountain
range, Fayette enjoys a temperate Southern climate, plenty
of fresh air and clean water, and folks who understand the
value of hard work.
It's an unbeatable combination, one of which we're justifiably
proud.
