North of Montgomery on I-65 and located in Autauga county, Prattville is one of the fastest growing communities in the River Region. Offering an excellent place to live and play, Prattville is home to the Legends at Capitol Hill Golf Course; part of the famous Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail.
'Heritage Park' - Located within Daniel Pratt Historic District, this park overlooks Autauga Creek and the manufacturing complex around which this New England style village was developed. Daniel Pratt founded Prattville in 1839, and patterned the town after those of his native New Hampshire. Pratt chose this site to manufacture cotton gins because of the abundant water power. The many artesian wells gave Prattville the name, "The Fountain City." Some of the buildings in view here have been used continuously since circa 1850. The Historic District is listed in the National Register, 1984. (Description courtesy of Cahaba Trade Commission and Historic Prattville Redevelopment Authority)
