Sylacauga, AL

 

Sylacauga is a city in Talladega County, Alabama, United States. Sylacauga is known for its fine white marble bedrock. This was discovered shortly after settlers moved into the area and has been quarried ever since. The marble industry was the first recorded industry in the Sylacauga area.

Sylacauga is the site of the first documented case of an object from outer space hitting a person. On November 30, 1954, a 4 kg (9 lb) piece of what became known as the Hodges Fragment from the Sylacauga Meteorite crashed through the roof of an Oak Grove house, bounced off a radio, and badly bruised Ann Hodges, who was taking an afternoon nap. Sylacauga is on the 2010 list of "100 Best Communities for Young People" by America's Promise Alliance.

The first historical account of the area comes from de Soto's chroniclers as his expedition traveled south along the east bank of the Coosa River in 1540, encountering the town of Talisi at the edges of the Mississippian-era chiefdoms of Coosa and Tuscaloosa. The inhabitants of the Coosa River Valley were later united as the Confederacy of Creek people. Their later encounters with Spanish and French settlers had a significant influence on the history of Sylacauga.

The major industries in Sylacauga are diverse, with the marble industry playing a significant role. The city boasts the world-famous Sylacauga Marble, also known as Alabama Marble, which has been used in various iconic structures, including the Lincoln Memorial. Additionally, Sylacauga's economy is influenced by manufacturing, healthcare, and retail sectors, providing a robust job market for residents.

Health and wellness are integral to the community of Sylacauga. The Coosa Valley Medical Center serves as a cornerstone for comprehensive healthcare services, ensuring the well-being of residents. Parks, trails, and recreational facilities contribute to the city's commitment to the health and wellness of its residents. The Coosa Valley Medical Center and Wellness offers a range of wellness services including fitness classes, nutritional counseling, and holistic health programs. Star Physical Therapy provides physical therapy services along with wellness programs focused on rehabilitation, pain management, and overall well-being.

FAQs

 

What does the Indian word Sylacauga AL mean?

The name Sylacauga is derived from the name Chalakage, meaning “Place of the Chalaka Tribe.” Inc. 1838. The city’s marble industry is supplemented by the manufacture of textiles, paper, printing, ice cream, and fertilizer. DeSoto Caverns Park, containing a 12-story cave, is nearby. The Isabel Anderson Comer Museum and Arts Center contains exhibits of art and local history. 

 

Why is Sylacauga, AL called the marble city?

Often referred to as the Marble City, Sylacauga sits atop a bed of marble 32 miles long, a mile and a half wide, and 400 feet deep. Alabama marble occurs in shades of white, pink, gray, red, and black, but the white marble of Sylacauga has consistently drawn the most acclaim. Sylacauga marble was first made famous by Italian sculptor Giuseppe Moretti, who established a marble works and studio in the area. Stone from local quarries was used to construct the Lincoln Memorial and the U.S. Supreme Court building.

 

What is the history of Sylacauga, AL?

The first historical account of the area comes from de Soto's chroniclers as his expedition traveled south along the east bank of the Coosa River in 1540, encountering the town of Talisi at the edges of the Mississippian-era chiefdoms of Coosa and Tuscaloosa. The inhabitants of the Coosa River Valley were later united as the Confederacy of Creek people. Their later encounters with Spanish and French settlers had a significant influence on the history of Sylacauga. Events that occurred among these three groups were partly responsible for the settlement of the village of Chalakagay in 1748 near modern Sylacauga by refugee Shawnee Indians, led by Peter Chartier. In 1759 Chalakagay was listed in the French territorial records as a town inhabited by 50 Shawnee warriors.
