Cleburne County Courthouse
With the growth and prosperity of Heflin due to the close proximity of the railroad, a movement began in 1905 to move the county seat from Edwardsville to Heflin. After a legal battle, an election was held, and Heflin won by 88 votes.
The courthouse construction was completed by October 5, 1907. The dome and clock are part of the original structure. The two, two-story wings were added in 1938. In 1976, the courthouse was placed on the National Register of Historic Places and still serves as office space for most of the county’s business.

The Train Depot
The Train Depot was built around the 1890’s. During the late 1950’s the railroad decided that they would not be using the stop in Heflin in the future. In the 1960’s the train depot was moved from the tracks. The train depot has been the home of various activities such as the Arts and Craft League, home of a museum, etc. It is now the site of the Cleburne County Chamber Office.
