    Bartow History Museum Unveils 2024 Annual Collectible Christmas Ornament Featuring Cooper’s Furnace

    Cartersville, GA – The Bartow History Museum proudly announces the release of its 2024 Annual Collectible Christmas Ornament, featuring the historic Cooper’s Furnace. This beautifully crafted ornament celebrates one of Bartow County’s most treasured landmarks, bringing a piece of local history to the holiday season.

    Cooper’s Furnace, the last remnant of a once-thriving industrial town from the late 1830s, was part of a bustling iron production center until its destruction during the Civil War in 1864. Today, the furnace stands as a powerful reminder of the industrial heritage that helped shape Bartow County and Georgia.

    Available while supplies last, the 2024 ornament makes a meaningful keepsake for history enthusiasts and local families. Each purchase supports the Bartow History Museum’s mission to preserve and share the unique history of our county.

    Purchase your ornament in person Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., or order online through the Bartow History Museum’s online store.
