The Fort Payne Depot Museum, originally known as the Alabama Great Southern Railroad Passenger Depot, is a historic site situated in Fort Payne, Alabama. This building carries a rich history and is a significant landmark in the region.
Constructed in 1891 by the Alabama Great Southern Railroad, the depot was built during the height of Fort Payne's mining boom. This period was a significant time in the city's history, and the depot stands as a testament to this era.
In 1986, the depot was transformed into a museum. It now houses a variety of exhibits, including 19th-century artifacts, Native American artifacts, a collection of dioramas depicting fantasy scenes and historical events, and an old Norfolk Southern Railway caboose.
