We are Georgia's only gold museum located at the site of an
historic gold mine. Pine Mountain Gold Mine was listed on the National
Register of Historic Places in 2008.
Pine Mountain Gold Museum was awarded The Southern Arc's
Best of 2008 "Best Tourist Attraction". In 2009, we received the
"Interpretative History Award" from the Carroll County Historical
Society. Both local and national attention was drawn when the
museum and park were featured on WSB-TV's "Georgia's Hidden
Treasures" and local Douglasville TV station, dctv23, "Insights"
with Chairman Tom Worthan.
We invite you to bring the family and enjoy a day of nature
trails, the farm animal exhibit, panning for gold and gemstones, an
authentic 1858 stamp mill, the gristmill and a self-guided tour of the
museum and the ruins of Pine Mountain's gold mines. Don't forget
to shop for souvenirs and panning supplies in the museum shop.
Scheduled group tours of 15 or more may enjoy a discount on
museum admission and panning. Knowledgeable tour guides will
accompany your group as you tour the museum, pan and explore
the mountain gold mine ruins. Please call Carla Smothers at 770-
459-8455, Ext. 4 to reserve your group tour.
