Ducktown is a small city located in Polk County in the U.S. state of Tennessee, situated in the southeastern corner of the state near the borders of Georgia and North Carolina. The city has a significant historical connection to copper mining, which shaped both its development and landscape during the 19th and 20th centuries.
The mining operations, which began in 1847, had such a profound environmental impact that the area around Ducktown was once compared to a moonscape due to sulfur dioxide emissions that destroyed vegetation. Today, the area has been largely reforested, and this industrial heritage is preserved and documented in the local Ducktown Basin Museum, which tells the story of the region's copper mining era.
The surrounding Cherokee National Forest offers opportunities for outdoor activities, while the city maintains its small-town character with a rich mining heritage that attracts visitors interested in industrial history.
