Phenix City; Alabama; on the western bank of the Chattahoochee River across from Columbus; Georgia; was officially incorporated as Brownville in 1883. However; its history can be traced through Girard; Knights Station; Summerville; Fort Mitchell; the Creek Indian town of Coweta; and several other communities within Russell County. Phenix City has provided a setting for many of the important events in Alabama�s history from early Spanish explorers; to its rich Native American heritage; to its role in opening and settling the Southern frontier; to its adherence to King Cotton; to its rebirth after being regarded the �wickedest city in America.� Phenix City has undergone profound change and yet has retained its rural charm.
