markers across Georgia on a wide variety of subjects. Today those markers and over two thousand others erected during earlier chapters in the state’s marker program are available here through a searchable database. Roadside historical markers capture Georgia history in a format readily understood by travelers and residents alike. These easily identifiable markers give readers a unique insight into the stories of our shared past. The search tools allow users to access information on markers in all parts of Georgia and even create travel routes to view markers based on individual interests such as Georgia in the Civil War or the Civil Rights Movement and can experience history where it happened.</p> <p><a href="https://www.georgiahistory.com/learn-and-explore/historical-markers/"><strong>Learn more about our historical marker program</strong></a></p> </div> </div> <div class="fl-accordion-item "> <div class="fl-accordion-button" id="fl-accordion-45h7qiv3mrlo-tab-1" aria-controls="fl-accordion-45h7qiv3mrlo-panel-1" tabindex="0"> <a href="#" id="fl-accordion-45h7qiv3mrlo-label-1" class="fl-accordion-button-label" tabindex="0" aria-controls="fl-accordion-45h7qiv3mrlo-panel-1">The Georgia History Festival</a> <a href="#" id="fl-accordion-45h7qiv3mrlo-icon-1" class="fl-accordion-button-icon" tabindex="-1"><i class="fl-accordion-button-icon fl-accordion-button-icon-right fas fa-plus"><span class="sr-only">Expand</span></i></a> </div> <div class="fl-accordion-content fl-clearfix" id="fl-accordion-45h7qiv3mrlo-panel-1" aria-labelledby="fl-accordion-45h7qiv3mrlo-tab-1" aria-hidden="true"> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-59875" src="https://www.georgiahistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/DSC_0041-300x201.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="201" srcset="https://www.georgiahistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/DSC_0041-300x201.jpg 300w, https://www.georgiahistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/DSC_0041-768x514.jpg 768w, https://www.georgiahistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/DSC_0041-1024x685.jpg 1024w, https://www.georgiahistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/DSC_0041.jpg 1500w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></p> <p>The <em>Georgia History Festival</em> is the signature K-12 educational program of the Georgia Historical Society.
