About Griffin

Griffin is the county seat of Spalding County, south of Atlanta. The Macon and Western Railroad reached a new station here in 1842, helping establish the city as a regional center. Griffin also has an education history that includes the Griffin Synodical Female College, and modern institutions such as Southern Crescent Technical College keep that practical role going. The city feels like an older Georgia railroad town adapting to metro Atlanta's southern growth while still serving its surrounding county.
