Fayette County was formed from parts of the Creek Indian Nation. Georgia's 49th county and its county seat, Fayetteville, were named for the Marquis de LaFayette, one of General George Washington's commanders in the Revolutionary War. The Fayette County Courthouse in Fayetteville was built in 1825, making it the oldest courthouse in the state. Every Halloween children in the county fill the courthouse square with elaborately decorated jack-o-lanterns.

For visitors and residents alike, Fayette County has much to offer. With excellent shopping and dining, a wide range of recreation and entertainment opportunities, beautiful residential communities, and a dedicated business community, it is no wonder Fayette County is "Where Quality is a Lifestyle".
