Welcome to Roswell

A 19th-century cotton mill village ages gracefully into a modern treasure.

Established in the 1830s, Roswell’s early settlers rose to prominence on cotton planted and milled locally, making it a solid target and subsequently a firm stronghold for Sherman in 1864. Existing quietly for the next century, Roswell’s current resurgence began in the late 1980s and now the city is widely celebrated for both its restoration efforts and future planning.

A fixture on lists touting the country’s most livable communities, Roswell’s unique history, convivial atmosphere, great schools, and convenient commute bolster the draw of this enchanting locale.

Roswell is a city just north of Atlanta that has such a historic feel to it that it speaks to the soul. Here you can find historical gems, and 7 miles of Chattahoochee river views and its wildlife, that will revert you back in time to simpler days, yet with all the modern comforts, amenities and outings you enjoy. From live arts to decadent foods to outdoor play, this beautiful city has your eye candy. Roswell feels like home on the river.
