Twiggs County, County administrative division in central Georgia, United States.
Twiggs County is an administrative division in central Georgia that spans terrain combining Piedmont hills in the north with flat pine forests in the south. The landscape transitions gradually as you move through the region, creating distinct geographical zones.
The county was established in 1809 through the division of Wilkinson County and named after Revolutionary War general John Twiggs. This creation reflected the period of administrative reorganization across the region.
The area evolved from Mississippian settlements to Creek Indian territories before becoming a center of kaolin mining and forestry industries.
Interstate 16 runs through the county and connects it to larger cities like Savannah and Macon. This major highway makes the region easy to reach and navigate.
The geographical center of Georgia is located in this county near Old Marion off Bullard Road. This point marks the central position of the area within the entire state.
