Radium Springs - A
Natural Wonder!
For a wonderful video presentation, featuring Morgan
Murphy (deceased) and Lamar Clifton
The largest natural springs in Georgia are found just
outside of Albany. The waters, which are consistently 68
degrees, contain traces of radium, and the site was
dubbed Radium Springs. A casino was built overlooking
the springs in the 1920s, and the area experienced a
tourism heyday as a spa and resort. Flooding of the
Flint River in 1994 and 1998 severely damaged the
casino, and it was ultimately demolished in 2003.
