Lowndesboro Historic District
Lowndesboro Historic District, Historic district in Lowndesboro, Alabama.
The district contains 1,800 acres of land with numerous pre-1860 structures exhibiting Greek Revival, Gothic Revival, and Federal architectural elements throughout the town.
The settlement began in 1815 when South Carolina families moved to the area after the Treaty of Fort Jackson, leading to several planter communities.
The district represents a complete architectural record of early American planter society, with thirty buildings dating from the antebellum period still standing.
The Marengo House, relocated in 1854, now functions as the Lowndesboro Town Hall on its ground floor, serving administrative purposes for residents.
The C.M.E Church building from 1833 houses the original cupola from Alabama's first state capitol at Old Cahawba.
