About Winder

Winder is a Barrow County city northeast of Atlanta, with roots reaching back to Creek people who first inhabited the area. It has the feel of a county-seat community even as metro Atlanta growth pushes outward around it. The Barrow County Courthouse, built in 1920 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, gives downtown a strong civic landmark, while the Barrow County Museum and county school district keep local history and everyday community activity close together.
