Talladega, Alabama - A Drive Through Town

Talladega, Alabama is located in the northeast central part of Alabama, approximately 50 miles east of Birmingham. The city of Talladega was incorporated in 1835, just two years after the creation of Talladega County. The Creek village Talatigi was located near the site before white settlement. As settlers began to move into the area, the name gradually evolved into Talladega (pronounced "Talla DE ga" unless you are an out of state race car fan and it is then pronounced
"Talla DA ga").  

Talladega has always been the county seat of Talladega County. It is home to one of the nation's most comprehensive educational programs for the deaf and blind, the Alabama Institute for the Deaf and Blind, as well as, Alabama's oldest private historically black liberal arts college, Talladega College. Talladega also has the Talladega Superspeedway and the Logan Martin Lake/Dam.
