History
Lumpkin County was created in 1832 from parts of Cherokee, Hall, and Habersham counties. The county was named for Wilson Lumpkin, who served as Governor of Georgia from 1831 to 1835. The county seat was originally located in the town of Auraria, but was moved to Dahlonega in 1833.
In 1828, gold was discovered in the area, and the town of Dahlonega quickly became a center of the gold rush. The town was home to the first U.S. Mint outside of Philadelphia, and the gold rush brought thousands of people to the area. The gold rush ended in the late 1840s, but the town of Dahlonega remains a popular tourist destination.
In the late 19th century, the county was home to several textile mills, which provided employment for many of the county’s residents. The county was also home to several sawmills and gristmills, which provided lumber and grain for the local economy.
Today, Lumpkin County is a popular tourist destination, with several wineries, state parks, and other attractions. The county is also home to several manufacturing companies, and is a popular retirement destination.
