Newnan

Welcome to Newnan, Georgia! Known as the “City of Homes” for its beautifully preserved antebellum and Victorian architecture, Newnan has a storybook downtown, six designated historic districts, and a strong sense of place that’s hard to find elsewhere. But it’s not just pretty on the outside—Newnan is also rich in culture, education, and opportunity, home to excellent schools, a thriving arts scene, and a dynamic local economy that blends small businesses, healthcare, manufacturing, and higher education.

Since its founding in 1825, Coweta has been a witness to defining American moments—from the Civil War’s Battle of Brown’s Mill, to the nationally known “Murder in Coweta County” trial, to being home to the first college in the U.S. to award a Master of Arts degree to women. Today, Newnan thrives as a vibrant community with a walkable historic downtown, thriving local businesses, and a calendar full of concerts, festivals, and family-friendly events. Whether you’re raising a family, building a business, or looking for a slower pace with quick access to the city, Newnan offers a timeless, story-filled place to call home.
