Cuthbert · Free exterior landmark · 10–30 minutes

Cuthbert Water Tower · 24 Court Street, Cuthbert, GA 39840

Exterior visible year-round

This is an exterior roadside sight in the center of divided US 82, not a climbable attraction.

  • Restored 1895 metal tower
  • Unusual divided-highway setting
  • Quick exterior architecture and photography stop

Before you go

  • The tower is an exterior landmark and is not open to climb or enter.
  • Use legal public parking and sidewalks; never stand in US 82 traffic for a photograph.
  • The tower no longer functions as a water tank.
  • The authentic photograph predates the completed 2023–24 restoration, so it does not show the current restored finish.
