Tishomingo County, County seat in northeastern Mississippi, United States
Located near the Tennessee River and Pickwick Lake, Tishomingo County spans across a varied landscape with rolling hills and dense forest areas.
The county was established on February 9, 1836, and its capital, Iuka, became a strategic location during the Civil War Battle of 1862.
The territory holds strong connections to Chickasaw heritage, with the name Iuka derived from a prominent Chickasaw village chief of the region.
Three marinas, Aqua Yacht Harbor, Mill Creek Marina, and Eastport Marina, provide water access and services along the Tennessee River waterfront.
The mineral springs of Iuka received recognition for water purity at the 1904 World's Fair in St. Louis, Missouri.
