Dahlonega Summary

History

Dahlonega was founded in 1833 as the seat of Lumpkin County. The city was named after the Cherokee word “Dahlonaga” which means “yellow” or “gold”. This is fitting as Dahlonega is known as the site of the first major gold rush in the United States. The gold rush began in 1828 when a man named Benjamin Parks discovered gold in the area. This discovery sparked a gold rush that lasted until the late 1840s. During this time, Dahlonega was a bustling town with a population of over 5,000 people.
The gold rush eventually ended and the population of Dahlonega declined. The city was able to survive the decline due to its location on the Western and Atlantic Railroad.

The college is now known as the University of North Georgia.
