Here is a picture of the courthouse. There are flecks of gold in the bricks, which were made locally. [ATTACH=full]1603787[/ATTACH] Here is a picture of the college administration building which is standing on the foundation of the Dahlonega Mint which burned in 1877. [ATTACH=full]1603790[/ATTACH] One of the people who worked there invited me. There are glass doors in front of the old foundation in the basement of the building.
