From a world class amusement park to a historic mill and village that is on the National Register of Historic Places, Austell has something for everyone to enjoy. Attractions have played an important role in the Austell economy since the early days when the area was known as Salt Springs. The cool lithia waters made the area one of the most well known health resorts in the South as visitors came to the area for the waters that were thought to have medicinal purposes. Today, Austell is well known as the home to one of the most popular amusement parks in the South – Six Flags over Georgia. In addition, the community also offers numerous outdoor recreational opportunities including ten outdoor public parks and a tree-lined 18 Hole, 6,480-yard, par 71 semi-private golf course.
