Decatur sits on Georgia’s Piedmont in the United States, where rolling uplands form part of the Atlanta metropolitan area. As the seat of DeKalb County, it has a civic centre focused on Courthouse Square, where the 1918 DeKalb County Courthouse now houses the DeKalb History Center. Agnes Scott College, founded in 1889, gives the city a long-established academic presence, while the Decatur MARTA station links downtown with Atlanta’s rail network. Founded in 1823, Decatur retains a compact core of brick storefronts, public buildings and tree-lined residential streets. The square also hosts the annual Decatur Arts Festival.
