The appeal doesn’t end there, history buffs can get a sense of our past with historical sites like the Fort Payne Depot Museum, a former train station built in 1891, now exhibiting Native American and local history artifacts. Music enthusiasts can visit a museum dedicated to locally form Southern rock band Alabama and the historic annual Boom Days festival.
