Coffeeville is a charming small town nestled on the picturesque banks of the Tombigbee River in southwest Alabama. With a rich history dating back to its incorporation in 1817, Coffeeville offers a mayor-city council form of government and is known for its excellent hunting and fishing opportunities. The town is home to the third largest lake in the Black Warrior and Tombigbee system, Coffeeville Lake, which spans over 8,800 acres and attracts outdoor enthusiasts from all over. Birdwatchers will also delight in the cypress swamps along the river, which provide a habitat for various bird species throughout the year. In addition to its natural beauty, Coffeeville is proud to be home to the Coffeeville Lock Dam, constructed on the Tombigbee River in the 1960s. This lock and dam system facilitates the passage of commercial and recreational vessels, making it a hub of activity. The town's early settlers were primarily involved in farming and the timber industry, and Coffeeville continued to thrive after the Civil War, reaching a population of 1,683 in the late 19th century. Today, Coffeeville remains a close-knit community that offers a range of services and amenities to its residents and visitors.Generated from the website
