Prattville is a city in Central Alabama that was founded in 1839 by Daniel Pratt, hence the name Prattville. He was an architect and industrial visionary from New Hampshire. His first encounter with the area was in the 1830s, when he visited Autauga Creek. During this time, there were a lot of Native Americans living in the area. There are two counties in Pratville, Autauga county and Elmore County. The population of Pratville is 37,781, so it is a pretty small city, but there are many great things about it. There are a few historical sites that can be visited. The Daniel Pratt Historic District, Bell House, and Buena Vista are the three most well-known historical sites in Pratville, all of which are on the National Register of Historic Places. The National Register of Historic Places was a part of the National Historic Preservation At of 1966. 

Pratville has many nicknames. “Pratt-Vegas” and “The Fountain City” are two of the most popular nicknames that have been given to the city. Pratville, Alabama is loaded with Artesian Wells. Artesian Wells are wells where groundwater rises to the surface without the need of pumping because there is natural pressure within the rock or sediment, aka an aquifer. There used to be over 400 artesian wells in the city limits. Unfortunately, there are only a handful of wells left, and you can find them with a quick Google search. But as you can see, “ The Fountain City” is an appropriate nickname for Pratville.

Another notable thing about Pratville is the Capitol Hill golf courses. These are a part of the Robert Trent Jones Gold Trail, and one of them hosted the LPGA Classic from 2007-2012. There are also some notable people from Pratville that you may have heard of. Tommy Shaw, the guitarist for the band, “Styx”, spent the first 12 years of his life in Pratville before relocating to Montgomery.
