the heart of the city. The community's earliest residents,
the Cherokee Indians, called this place "The Enchanted
Land". Easily accessible by interstate or air,

Rome's Historic
Clocktower: The 100-foot tower
stands atop a grass-covered knoll and
is visible from almost any spot
within the city's limits. It was
built in 1871 as Rome's' water tower.
The clock was installed a year later,
and though some changes have been
made, the massive four-faced
timepiece still functions
efficiently.
