Fort Payne A Walk Downtown

Описание: Fort Payne, the county seat of DeKalb County, is filled with history and things to see. During the 1830s prior to Indian removal, the US Army under command of Major John Payne built a fort here that was used to intern Cherokees until relocation to Oklahoma. Their forced exile became known as the Trail of Tears.
