Historical Sites and other points
of interest
Nacoochee
Indian Mound
Scenic signature of the Nacoochee Valley region.
Once the center of the ancient Cherokee Town of
Gauxule, visited by DeSoto in 1540. The
Ceremonial mounds date back to the pre-historic
culture of the Mississippian Culture known as
"Mound Builders". The gazebo that sits
on top of the Indian Mound was built in 1800's
by John H. Nichols, a wealthy White County resident.

Stovall
Mill Bridge
Spanning Chickamauga Creek not far from the Stovall
House. Fred Dover constructed a bridge and nearby
grist, saw and shingle mill complex here in the
late 1800s. The original bridge washed away
in the early 1890s and Will Pardue replaced it
in 1895 with the present 38-foot structure.
Dover sold the operation to Fred Stovall, Sr.
in 1917. Constructed as a modification of the
queen post truss design, the bridge's trusses
have two vertical posts (with iron rods) separated
by a horizontal crosspiece. The bridge was
featured in the 1951 movie, "I'd Climb the
Highest Mountain", starring Susan Heyward.
