Between the Rivers
Historic District
Nestled between the Etowah, Ostanaula, and Coosa Rivers, you’ll find a charming historic district that dates back to 1834. The tree-lined streets are filled with carefully restored Victorian homes, local businesses, a vintage train depot, and one of the oldest landmarks in the city, the Clocktower.

Myrtle Hill
Cemetery
For a slightly off-the-beaten-path activity, we recommend a visit to nearby Myrtle Hill Cemetery. Situated atop Myrtle Hill, this historic cemetery offers unparalleled views of Rome and provides a glimpse into the heritage of the city. Spread across six tiers and 32 acres, Myrtle Hill Cemetery is the final resting place for 377 soldiers from the Civil War and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
