Fort Mitchell is an unincorporated community in Russell County, Alabama, United States. The settlement developed around a garrisoned fort intended to provide defense for the area during the Creek War (1813–14).[2]
Fort Mitchell is about 10 miles south of Phenix City, Alabama and Columbus, Georgia; Fort Moore lies on the opposite side of the Chattahoochee River from Fort Mitchell.
The community is the home of the Fort Mitchell National Cemetery, established in 1987 for interment of all US veterans.[3]
A major United States fur trade factory was situated here between 1795 and 1807 before it was moved a few miles south to Hiawassee .[4]
